Bill Abel and his Abel Motorsports team will not be competing in the Indianapolis 500, leaving the field with 34 cars. Abel expressed disappointment that their driver RC Enerson could not secure the necessary funds for the effort. Abel’s son Jacob might step in to test the team’s new Dallara DW12 and potentially make his IndyCar debut later in the season. The team is still preparing the car, hoping it will be ready soon, but time constraints are a challenge. While not expecting full-time engine supply next year, Abel is eager to race at least once, possibly aiming for an IndyCar and Indy NXT doubleheader weekend if circumstances allow.
