IndyCar’s silly season has taken a dramatic turn with the news that Scott Dixon is leaving Chip Ganassi Racing after 25 seasons. The six-time champion’s departure means the No. 9 seat at CGR is now up for grabs.
Driver Market Puzzle
The 42-year-old Dixon’s destination for 2027 has not been announced, but reports suggest a potential move to Arrow McLaren. This development has significant implications for the driver market, particularly with Indianapolis 500 champion Felix Rosenqvist also rumored to be joining Arrow McLaren.
The No. 60 seat at Meyer Shank Racing, which has a technical relationship with CGR, is now a highly sought-after position. Christian Lundgaard, who has impressed at Arrow McLaren, could be a potential candidate for the No. 9 seat at CGR, where he would compete alongside Alex Palou.
