Four-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves will likely make another Speedway run in 2027 and continue his pursuit of becoming the only driver to secure five victories in IndyCar’s biggest race. But it could be his last chance to do so with Meyer Shank Racing.

Monday, October 26, 2026 marked Dreyer & Reinbold Racing’s return to full-time competition in the IndyCar Series when Conor Daly took to the track with DRR’s No. 24 Honda.

Indy NXT veteran Josh Pierson will perform his IndyCar licensing approval test on Tuesday at the Indianapolis road course.

The last race of Scott Dixon’s farewell season with Chip Ganassi Racing ended in a similar fashion to the first race of 2026. Both were unrewarding and unrepresentative of the six-time champion’s 25-year tenure with CGR, but he persevered through adversity to place 17th in the No. 9 Honda and farewell the only team he’s known since 2002.

Dreyer & Reinbold Racing has confirmed Conor Daly as the driver of its new full-time IndyCar Series entry.
