The Arrow McLaren IndyCar team will replace Alexander Rossi with Danish driver Christian Lundgaard at the end of the 2024 season, ending the 2016 Indy 500 winner’s two-year tenure in Papaya orange colors. The move is an interesting one, as Rossi clearly still has the drive and talent (though maybe not the luck) needed to succeed—he qualified and finished fourth at the Indy 500 this year, and sits seventh on points following a podium at the most recent Laguna Seca round. Lundgaard, however, shows a lot of promise as he’s been seriously outdriving his Rahal Letterman-entered car.

Rossi Out, Lundgaard In. The Carousel Continues To Turn At Arrow McLaren

MOORESVILLE, North Carolina – The biggest prize on the IndyCar driver market will take his helmet to Arrow McLaren Racing next season. It’s Christian Lundgaard, currently with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing, who will replace departing driver Alexander Rossi in the No. 7 Chevrolet in the NTT IndyCar Series.

Christian Lundgaard Will Replace Alexander Rossi at Arrow McLaren In 2026

Arrow McLaren has been in the center of IndyCar silly season for the last few seasons, and 2024 isn’t a different story. The team has already dumped David Malukas and Theo Pourchaire while signing Nolan Siegel before July. Alexander Rossi is also expected to re-sign with Arrow McLaren; however, will this still come to fruition after the latest shocking report?
According to Tony Donohue, Christian Lungaard is rumored to join Arrow McLaren, with an announcement coming on Wednesday. Lungaard is a rising star in the IndyCar Series and drives for Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing.
It’s unclear if Lungaard would join a fourth car or replace Rossi, as Siegel and Pato O’Ward are signed for the 2025 season. It would be a disappointing development for Rossi, who deserves a top ride in the IndyCar Series. Yet, Arrow McLaren isn’t new to making shocking decisions. Lungaard could be joining a top-tier IndyCar Series team, which should put the series on notice.

When Robert Wickens hit the wall in the Pocono IndyCar race back in 2018 the Canadian racer suffered a bruised spine that took away his ability to walk, let alone race. By 2022 he was back racing full time with Bryan Herta Autosport in IMSA’s TCR class using specially adapted hand controls, and in 2023 he won the season championship. It took him a lot longer than he’d hoped to get back into an open wheeler, but after 2,141 days out of the cockpit, he spent this weekend testing a hand-controlled Formula E chassis during the Portland E-Prix weekend. I don’t think there’s a bigger badass in racing right now than Wickens. Dudes rock.

The Los Angeles Lakers struggled to find any traction in 2023. While there is no questioning the greatness of Anthony Davis and LeBron James, the rest of the roster never stepped up. This offseason, the Lakers are reportedly aggressively trying to add another star, but any championship roster is defined by the pieces around those stars. The Lakers re-signed one of those pieces today. Guard Max Christie is coming back to the team on a four-year deal.
