During the two-day test in the USF2000 car, Bryson worked with Chief Engineer of Jensen MotorSport Remi Lanteigne.

“Bryson is one of the fastest drivers in the current crop of Ontario karters. It is impressive the number of talented drivers being produced by the Ontario kart racing community, including IndyCar star James Hinchcliffe and World Series Renault points leader and F1 test driver Robert Wickens.

At his F2000 test, Bryson showed that he possesses the talent and commitment to succeed as a professional driver, and our Jensen MotorSport team is excited to assist with his career progression,” said Lanteigne.

Sanctioned by IndyCar, the USF2000 National Championship, presented by Cooper Tires and powered by Mazda, is one of two series part of both the IndyCar's Mazda Road to Indy ladder system and the MazdaSpeed Motorsports Development driver program.

USF2000 is the first step in the driver development system with a clear objective to assist in the development of the next-generation of a professional open-wheel race car drivers in North America.
