Andretti Global has decided to move forward with three full-time NTT IndyCar Series entries, signaling the end of their practice of fielding a fourth car for hire. The team had previously used all four cars to compete for wins and podiums, but the expansion to four cars has not been as successful in recent years. The decision comes after Andretti entered four full-time cars in 16 of the last 18 seasons. The team’s focus will now be on Colton Herta, Kyle Kirkwood, and Marcus Ericsson, and they hope to replicate the success of Team Penske, which won the 2022 IndyCar title after reducing their cars from four to three. The team will also maintain continuity with the engineers attached to its three cars, and will enter the Indy 500 with a smaller effort of four cars instead of the usual five. Marco Andretti, who retired from IndyCar in 2020, will return to pilot an extra entry at the Indy 500.
