MOORESVILLE, N.C. – The biggest prize on the IndyCar driver market will take his helmet to Arrow McLaren Racing next season. Christian Lundgaard, currently with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing, will replace departing driver Alexander Rossi in the No. 7 Chevrolet in the NTT IndyCar Series. Arrow McLaren issued a...

Christian Lundgaard leaving Rahal Letterman to join Arrow McLaren in 2025, replacing Alexander Rossi

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.

Hendrick Motorsports has ended its relationship with Hooters because the company was not fulfilling its obligations. “Hooters has been a valued partner of Hendrick Motorsports since 2017, contributing to our shared successes both on and off the track,” a statement from the organization read. “In recent months, however, Hooters has not been able to meet its business obligations to our organization.

NASCAR felt Kyle Busch was not involved in the first overtime incident Sunday night at Nashville Superspeedway, and that’s why he was given his top-five position back. Ross Chastain spun in Turn 1 off the bumper of Kyle Larson, which sent the Trackhouse Racing Chevrolet toward the outside wall. Chastain led the outside lane on the restart, and Busch was lined up in the row behind him. As Chastain spun, Busch went high to avoid him and bounced off the wall.

AM Racing has made a shocking change ahead of the NASCAR Xfinity Series race at the Chicago Street Course. On Monday afternoon, AM Racing announced that Hailie Deegan will not drive the No. 15 Xfinity car at the Chicago Street Course. Instead, Joey Logano will pilot the entry as the organization looks to increase its performance in 2024.
In 2024, Deegan has a best finish of 12th place at Talladega Superspeedway with five straight finishes of 25th place or worse. The 22-year-old driver sits 27th in the point standings, the worst of any driver who has made every start throughout the 2024 NASCAR season. This is a major difference for AM Racing compared to the 2023 season.
Brett Moffitt drove the No. 15 car and finished 15th in the point standings last year. As of now, Deegan sits 27th in the point standings. AM Racing never said when Deegan will return to the entry, but the next Xfinity Series race is at Pocono Raceway on July 13. Logano will look to provide feedback to AM Racing in its efforts to increase performance in 2024.

Lando Norris accused Max Verstappen of being “a little bit desperate” and lacking respect in their battle for the lead in the Austrian Grand Prix that ended in contact. Verstappen’s comfortable lead disappeared towards the end of the second stint of the race, with Norris taking advantage of a slow pit stop from Red Bull to get within DRS range and trying to overtake. Multiple attempts down the inside of Turn 3 saw Norris fail to get the move done — once running wide himself and another seeing Verstappen go wide and rejoin ahead — before Verstappen was penalized for causing a collision with Norris on the outside approaching the corner.

Haas team principal Ayao Komatsu says there will be news about the future driver line-up “soon,” with two vacancies still to be filled for 2025. The driver market has slowed down in recent months, with Nico Hulkenberg’s future move from Haas to Stake the last change announced in Miami. Since then there’s been the confirmation of Sergio Perez, Yuki Tsunoda, Pierre Gasly and Lance Stroll all staying with their current teams, but with Hulkenberg to replace and Kevin Magnussen out of contract, Komatsu says Haas will finalize at least one of those seats in the near future.

Three wins in a row, four from the last five races – it’s quite the contrast for Antonio Felix da Costa who spent the first part of the year struggling for form. After inheriting Saturday’s race victory from a penalized Mitch Evans, the TAG Heuer Porsche driver managed a chaotic Sunday race perfectly to win on the road ahead of Robin Frijns and Evans. He’s now firmly in championship contention with two rounds to go, but despite being Formula E’s flavor of the month, he’s not taking anything for granted.
