The 20-year-old joined Juncos Racing in 2014, finishing sixth in the Pro Mazda championship before graduating to Indy Lights in ’15, and again finishing sixth.
However, the breakthrough came this past season when he took two wins, six other podiums and three pole positions on his way to third in the championship behind Ed Jones and Santiago Urrutia.
Team owner Ricardo Juncos, who guided Spencer Pigot to the Indy Lights title in the team’s first season in the series, said: “I’m very happy to have Kyle returning for another season with us at Juncos Racing. The relationship we have built over the years is second to none and positions us very well for the upcoming season.
“Kyle has grown tremendously as a driver these past three seasons, and I fully expect him to be in the title hunt again next year. I know everyone at Juncos Racing will be working hard towards this goal, especially Kyle, who wants to add his name to the list of Indy Lights champions.”
Kaiser added: “Ricardo is an extremely passionate and dedicated team owner, and it has been a privilege to drive for him the past three years.
“The work ethic from everyone in the team has made Juncos competitive every race weekend, and I’m thrilled to be returning for another year. It’s great to be working with a group of guys that I know so well and can trust to do everything it takes to win a championship.”
