IndyCar 2023 season review: Juncos Hollinger Racing
In 2023, Juncos Hollinger Racing showed progress with two top-five finishes and improved standings for Callum Ilott, who finished 16th overall. Ilott had some strong performances throughout the season, including a career-best fifth-place finish and three top-10 finishes. However, his potential was limited by the addition of a second full-time entry and rookie Agustín Canapino, who was still adjusting to open wheel racing. Canapino, despite being a rookie, showcased impressive skills with a pair of 12th-place finishes on different types of tracks. Unfortunately, contact with Ilott prevented a potential podium or top-five result at Laguna Seca. Overall, Juncos showed promising performance, but the team faced some internal conflicts and external social media abuse. The signing of Romain Grosjean for the 2024 season could potentially boost Juncos’ progress and help them establish themselves in American open-wheel racing. It will be interesting to see how Canapino and Grosjean work together as teammates.
