Colton Herta has ruled out attempting to run the Indianapolis 500 and the Formula 2 round at Montreal on the same day.
The California native, who is a test driver for Cadillac’s Formula 1 team and currently running his maiden season in F2, was previously rumored to contest this year’s Indy 500 with Andretti Global, his IndyCar team for six years (2020-25). Although the option existed prior to the 2026 season, the Middle East conflict put a pause on the F2 schedule before the series opted to pivot by adding rounds and accompanying F1 at Miami and Montreal.
