Toronto-native James Hinchcliffe will return for a second year to the Firestone Indy Lights Series in 2010 this time with Indianapolis-based Team Moore Racing.

“Hinch” enjoyed an impressive rookie season in the 2009 Firestone Indy Lights Series after finishing fifth in the Driver Standings racing for Sam Schmidt Motorsports.

The driver from Ontario will join Spanish rookie, Adrian Campos Jr., in Team Moore Racing's two-car line-up.

Back-to-back 'Rookie of the Year' titles and Runner-Up finishes in Formula BMW USA and Star Mazda, in 2004 and 2005 respectively, were followed by race wins and podiums in the Atlantic Championship between 2006 and 2008.
