Clearly the favorite, and we all know year 2 is when a driver really gets to showcase their talents. Plus Penske engineering support will mean Newgarden and Power and Scotty will be asking him for input and advice on their cars.

Stingie has a new teammate, and it's not the guy who welcomed him to the team last month.

https://racer.com/2024/01/09/foyt-co...with-ferrucci/

Ferrucci takes the #14 seat and Pedersen is out. Claimed he broke the terms of the deal so he was dropped, but no mention of what terms. Interesting to know what it is but it's Indy so I'm sure some type of legal action is coming so maybe we'll know

I was wondering about the breach of contract as well. What if the contract said "finish in top 10 in final standings" he was 27th.

It is kinda funny that he got replaced by the person who finished one position ahead of him in the final standings.

It is also harder not to be on podium every week than it is to be on it.

DRR adds Cusick to team management and they are bringing 2 cars to Indy for RHR and Daly. Sounds like Cusick didn't like moving on from Stefan but no options were out there for them to really be able to make the race so they moved on, sounds like the usual can't get an engine

It has been a while since they won anything of note. Their last IndyCar Drivers Championship was in 2012, when Ryan Hunter-Reay won. The last Indy 500 was in 2017, which Takuma Sato won and they won the Indy Lights Drivers Championship in 2021, with Kyle Kirkwood but not the Team Championship. That went to HMD Motorsports, who Linus Lundqvist and David Malukas drove for that year. Colton Herta hasn't won a race since the 2022 GMR Grand Prix at Indianapolis. His best result since then was 3rd at Toronto last year.

Gosh, when you list all their results that doesn't sound very good. Had excitement with Herta a couple years ago and a good run for Kirkwood this past season but it just wasn't consistent.
