Is Conor Daly the mercenary that finally found a home?
“The nomad that finally got a place to take residence,” was his response to Motorsport.com in an exclusive sit down roughly an hour before his announcement confirming his full-time IndyCar Series return with Juncos Hollinger Racing for 2025.
The native Hoosier was thrust into a last-gasp situation for the small organization at the end of the 2024 season, closing out the final five races in an effort to push the team’s No. 78 Chevrolet-powered entry, originally piloted by Agustin Canapino before a midseason divorce, back into the Leaders Circle (top 22 in points) and crucial $1 million prize. And he accomplished the feat in style, scoring two top 10s that included the teams first-ever podium (third) in Race 1 at The Milwaukee Mile.
