There is one very simple reason why AJ Foyt Racing chose Santino Ferrucci as the driver of the No. “Whatever the situation, he goes forward on race day,” team president Larry Foyt said. Ferrucci, 24, has not been a full-time fixture in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES since 2020. “I know that race, in particular, I will always kind of have a shot,” Ferrucci said. Ferrucci may have just 43 career NTT INDYCAR SERIES starts over five seasons, but that experience will prove valuable to help push the Foyt team forward and also help Pedersen in his rookie season. “To come back full-time and to be driving for Larry, it’s an honor,” Ferrucci said.
