Although Simon Pagenaud was generally credited with having done a solid job as a replacement for the injured Justin Wilson at Dreyer & Reinbold Racing for the Mid-Ohio IndyCar round, the Indianapolis Star reports that the team's No. 22 Dallara-Honda will be driven by 2008 GP2 champion Giorgio Pantano at the next two road and street course events at Baltimore and Sonoma's Infineon Raceway.

Tomas Scheckter, who took over the No. 22 for this past weekend's oval race at New Hampshire, is driving for SH Racing at Baltimore and so was not available.
