Callum Ilott will be making his Arrow McLaren debut this weekend at the St. Petersburg IndyCar race, filling in for David Malukas in the No. 6 Chevy. Ilott had an impressive performance during testing for the team, earning a spot alongside Pato O’Ward and Alexander Rossi for the new IndyCar season opener. After a successful debut in the FIA World Endurance Championship with Hertz Team Jota Porsche, Ilott will now showcase his talents in IndyCar. Despite limited pre-season running, the 25-year-old Briton is expected to adapt quickly to the street circuit in St. Petersburg. While Arrow McLaren hopes to have Malukas back soon, Ilott remains a strong backup option if needed.
