Keeping up with all the racing driver news lately has been really exciting. There's so much young talent coming through the ranks across all the major series. From what I'm seeing in the racing driver news, several rookies are really making names for themselves in feeder series.

Some are taking the traditional route through European feeder series, while others are coming through IndyCar or even sports car racing.
