McLaren have confirmed that Britain’s Callum Ilott will complete their four-car line-up for the 108th Indianapolis 500.
Ahead of practice getting under way on Tuesday, McLaren on Monday confirmed that former Ferrari academy driver Ilott will return for his third Indy 500 start.
Nine days of live track action on Sky Sports, leading up to the main event on Sunday May 26, will begin with the opening practice session at 2.15pm on Tuesday.
“It is any driver’s dream to race in the Indianapolis 500, and I’d like to extend a thank you to Zak (Brown), Gavin (Ward) and Tony (Kanaan) for making this happen,” Ilott said.
“I’m grateful to step into this race with a familiar car and a familiar team now in Arrow McLaren. While our April Open Test at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway was shortened by weather, the runs we did have were productive.
