Sebastian (with an 'a') Saavedra is set to return to full-time IZOD IndyCar Series competition as driver of the No. 6 TRUECar Dragon Racing Chevrolet, joining four-time Champ Car World Series champion Sebastien (with an 'e') Bourdais in team owner Jay Penske's stable.
The Colombian native, who will replace Britain's Katherine Legge as the team's second driver, finished fourth in last season's Firestone Indy Lights championship. In addition, he ran three races for Andretti Autosport on the IndyCar side (Indianapolis, Sonoma and Fontana).
Saavedra competed in 14 IZOD IndyCar Series races for Conquest Racing in 2011.
