Arrow McLaren is fast-tracking Theo Pourchaire’s IndyCar Series training by sending him to the World Wide Technology Raceway oval to pass his oval rookie test on Monday. The goal is for Pourchaire to race the No. 6 Chevy at the ovals post-Indianapolis 500. Callum Ilott is expected to lead the No. 6 entry after official Speedway practice starts on May 14 following his successful run from 28th to 12th at the 2023 Indy 500. Arrow McLaren’s commitment indicates they plan to utilize Pourchaire for most of the season, as Ilott will have conflicts with his FIA World Endurance Championship schedule after Indy. If Pourchaire performs well at WWTR, he could secure a contract for the 2025 season by exceeding team expectations.
