Sting Ray Robb

Sting Ray Robb (born September 3, 2001) is an American racing driver. He competes in the IndyCar Series, driving the No. 77 Dallara-Chevrolet for Juncos Hollinger Racing.

Robb received a go-kart at age five, kickstarting his racing career. He started running nationally at age eight, entering Cadet division events from 2010 to 2013. During his first season in the Junior ranks, he finished second in America and raced in Valencia, Spain. Robb won a national championship in Rotax Junior Max karting in 2015. He also raced go-karts in Portugal.

Robb switched from go-kart racing to car racing in 2016. He joined the then-Pro Mazda Championship with World Speed Motorsports in 2017.

Robb ran a full Pro Mazda season in 2018 with Team Pelfrey.

On February 17, 2019, Robb was confirmed to join Juncos Racing as a part of their Indy Pro 2000 roster. After winning two poles in 2019, Robb was confirmed to return to Juncos for the 2020 Indy Pro 2000 season on March 7, 2020.

On July 30, 2020, Robb won his first career Indy Pro 2000 race at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. He later swept a three-race weekend at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Robb claimed one win in a tripleheader weekend at New Jersey Motorsports Park in October and secured the championship ahead of the season finale doubleheader at St. Petersburg.

Robb remained with Juncos as he moved up into Indy Lights in 2021.

On October 28, 2021, Andretti Autosport announced that Robb would join the team full-time for the 2022 Indy Lights season.

With significant financial backing and feeling his stock was at his highest, Robb elected to step up to the IndyCar Series rather than stay in the renamed-for-2023 Indy NXT series. Robb would later be confirmed as the full-time driver for Dale Coyne Racing with Rick Ware Racing for the 2023 season, partnering David Malukas. The opening number of races saw Robb being involved in a number of incidents, including a mistake at his maiden IndyCar oval race at Texas which saw him sliding into the wall. As well as this, Robb caused a collision with his teammate Malukas at the Indianapolis Road Course, later apologising for ending the team's day on lap two. In May, he would qualify for his first Indianapolis 500, posting a speed of 229.549 mph during the "Last Chance" session to qualify 32nd. Robb would crash in turn 1 near the mid-point of the race, finishing 31st. This ended up being Robb's final retirement of the season, though he would be disqualified from the second race at Iowa when one of the wheels dislodged itself after a pit stop. The Idahoan attained the best finish of his campaign at Laguna Seca, finishing 12th, though it would not prevent him from ending up 23rd in the standings, with Benjamin Pedersen being the only full-time driver beaten by Robb.

For the 2024 season, Robb switched to A. J. Foyt Racing, which had just taken on a technical partnership with Team Penske. Robb was injured after a last lap crash during a race at Iowa Speedway.

Robb competed in the NASCAR K&N Pro Series West 2018 NAPA Auto Parts Idaho 208, finishing tenth.

Robb attended Payette High School; he played basketball and ran cross country at the school. Robb is a Christian, saying in an article on Racer.com, "My heroes are all those who have come alongside to make it possible for me to follow God’s calling in my life; and to them I say, 'Thank you.' All the glory goes to God!"

Robb's parents are Chevrolet enthusiasts, and named him after the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray sports car.
