Citrone/Buhl Autosport was an American racing team, that competed in the NTT IndyCar Series with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing as technical team and Spencer Pigot as a driver.[1][2]
The team was created after a friendship of over 20 years by Robert Citrone, who is a co-founder of Discovery Capital Management[3] and minority owners at the Pittsburgh Steelers,[4] and Robbie Buhl. In 2016, Robbie, along with his brother Tom Buhl, started Buhl Sport Detroit, a motorsports marketing company, professional race team, and teen driving program based in Detroit, Michigan. Buhl's racing team, Racing4Detroit, ran in the Americas Rallycross Championship in 2018 and 2019, with Alex Keyes as the racing driver.
