Team Penske has officially signed 23-year-old David Malukas to drive the No. 12 Chevrolet, replacing Will Power, and aims to develop his potential within their successful racing team, with Malukas expressing excitement about the opportunity to race for one of the sport's top teams.
David Malukas will be sidelined for six weeks at the start of the NTT IndyCar Series season due to wrist surgery following a mountain biking incident, with his Arrow McLaren team seeking a temporary replacement for the No. 6 Chevy. Malukas expressed disappointment but is determined to return, while the team is fully supportive and focused on his recovery.
Alexander Rossi topped the 27-car field in the first practice session of the NTT IndyCar Series at Road America with a best lap of 1m41.7790s. David Malukas and Alex Palou followed in second and third place, respectively. The newly-paved track and Firestone's new tires produced impressive speeds, with Rossi knocking more than three seconds off his most impressive lap prior to the repave. The session provided an opportunity for teams to understand the differences between the tires used last week and the new Firestone Reds.
