This weekend, the fifth edition of the Velocity Invitational will take place at Sonoma Raceway, featuring racing legends like Jenson Button and drivers from the NTT IndyCar Series. In 2023, Velocity founder Jeffrey O’Neil and McLaren Racing joined forces to create a unique experience with F1 McLaren cars and drivers like Lando Norris. This year, McLaren is sending drivers like Tony Kanaan and Christian Lundgaard to pilot turbocharged McLaren Indy cars. Kanaan fulfilled a dream of driving Ayrton Senna’s 1991 McLaren last year and is looking forward to a more relaxed experience this time around. Other stars like Romain Grosjean and Travis Pastrana will also be participating in the event, making it an exciting gathering for racing enthusiasts.
