I'd say so, yes, since he only did three races before suffering the back injuries during practice for the Indianapolis 500.

Not sure, to be honest, whether or not IndyCar has an official cap on the number of races you can do in one year and still be classified as a rookie the next. The NEXTEL Cup Series, for example, has a cap of seven races in one year to maintain your rookie-status for the following year.
