      Carroll, a native of Portadown, Northern Ireland, had victories, six poles and eight podiums in seven rounds on his way to winning the 2008-2009 A1GP World title for Team Ireland. Carroll has 41 victories, 83 podium finishes and 24 pole starts in Formula Renault Campus, Formula Ford, Formula 3, GP2 and A1GP.

      Andretti Autosport has yet to determine Carroll's schedule or car assignment.

      MICHAEL ANDRETTI (Andretti Autosport chairman, president and CEO): "We're very excited that Adam is on board," "He is a special talent and someone who we believe will have a bright future with us at Andretti Autosport.

It is gratifying to know that the success I've enjoyed so far in my career has drawn the attention of a team owner like Michael Andretti. The IZOD IndyCar Series is clearly one of the most competitive formulas in the world right now and I'm looking forward to being introduced into the field later this year."
