Sowery to close out 2024’s road and street races in Coyne’s No. 51

Dale Coyne Racing will complete the road and street courses left on the schedule with Toby Sowery in the No. 51 Honda. With Katherine Legge tipped to compete in the four remaining oval races on the calendar, the British duo should complete Coyne’s lineup in the car.

Sowery is paired with NTT IndyCar Series newcomer Hunter McElrea, who will debut in the No. 18 Coyne Honda for this weekend’s Ontario Honda Dealers Indy Toronto event in Canada. Sowery will return in August at the Bitnile.com Grand Prix of Portland, which will give the 29-year-old a total of three IndyCar races with the team after impressing Coyne at Mid-Ohio with a smart debut drive to 13th.

“It’s amazing to be back with Dale Coyne Racing,” Sowery said. “Having such a strong debut has certainly set our hopes and expectations fairly high. Now that I’ve got a weekend under my belt, I feel I’ve got foundations to build on and that’s definitely the goal. I’ve not been to Toronto or Portland in a very long time, but I really enjoyed those events and atmosphere previously. Portland is also where I got my Indy NXT win, so it will be great to go back there. I can’t wait to finish off the road courses in the No. 51 for DCR.”

After Mid-Ohio, Coyne wanted to get Sowery back in the car as soon as possible.

“Toby really impressed during his weekend with us at Mid-Ohio and we’re excited to have him back for another couple of races this year,” Coyne said. “Not only was Toby a pleasure to work with, but he was up to speed immediately after not having driven one of these cars in over a year. We can’t wait to see what he’ll do on the streets of Toronto this weekend.”
