Andersen Promotions, administrator of the Cooper Tires USF2000 Series has announced the creation of the Pro Mazda Championship that will take over from the Star Mazda Series.
The Star Mazda series had been free falling since the Rodrigues family decided to pull out of the organizing committee after 22 years.
The Pro Mazda Championship will utilize the same equipment as the former Star Mazda Series, including the 260-horsepower Mazda "Renesis" rotary engine.
The full 2013 schedule will be unveiled next week.
Moreover, the 2012 Star Mazda champion Jack Hawksworth has signed with Sam Schmidt Motorsports ahead of the 2013 Firestone Indy Lights season.
The 21-year-old British driver registered last season a record 10 pole positions and further 8 wins for Team Pelfrey.
