Just a couple of weeks after finishing a strong third in Toronto, Rosenqvist scored a highly convincing pole on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course, and only a mechanical issue prevented his Arrow McLaren SP from contending for victory.
However, although signed by McLaren for 2023, the 30-year-old Swede has not yet been informed in which series he’ll be competing. While McLaren is expanding the Arrow McLaren SP IndyCar team from two to three full-time entries next year, and has signed incumbent Pato O’Ward and current Andretti Autosport driver Alexander Rossi, the occupant of the third seat has not yet been defined. McLaren has signed defending IndyCar champion Alex Palou, and while the latter’s ambition is to be in Formula 1, until a vacancy becomes available he’s one of the obvious choices for the third AMSP ride.
