TEAM INFO

Meyer Shank Racing

In its third decade of competition, Meyer Shank Racing is a force in both the INDYCAR SERIES and endurance sports car racing.

The Ohio-based team has scored wins in some of the biggest races in the world, including the 105th Running of the Indianapolis 500 and the Rolex 24 At Daytona, as well as claiming multiple championship titles.

In 2024, Meyer Shank Racing will set its focus on an all-new and revived NTT INDYCAR SERIES driver lineup. MSR's primary full-season entry will be filled by INDYCAR SERIES veteran and well-known Swede, Felix "FRO" Rosenqvist, and will be joined by rising star David Malukas starting at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.

Since winning the 2021 Indianapolis 500 in his first-ever INDYCAR SERIES race with MSR, Helio Castroneves will return to the team as he continues his #DriveFor5 – a historical feat to become the first driver to claim five Indianapolis 500 victories. Castroneves will compete in an Indy 500-only entry for Meyer Shank Racing in 2024 in addition to his new role as a minority partner of the team. The new position will see Castroneves continue to be a staple around the paddock as he serves as a brand ambassador and driver coach to the team for 2024 and beyond.
