Mick Schumacher has secured his IndyCar future, with the German set to join Meyer Shank Racing for the 2027 season after completing his debut campaign with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
Schumacher will drive the #66 entry for Meyer Shank Racing, alongside Marcus Armstrong, who moves over to the #60 car, as the team reduces from three entries to two.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
The move represents the latest chapter in a varied career for the 27-year-old, who has competed across Formula 1, the World Endurance Championship and, in 2026, IndyCar.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
Schumacher arrived in the American single-seater series with RLL after spending two seasons racing in the WEC with Alpine.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
His endurance programme followed a spell as Mercedes’ Formula 1 reserve driver, a role he took up after losing his Haas seat at the end of 2022.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
Before reaching F1, Schumacher established himself as one of the leading talents in junior single-seater racing. Having finished runner-up in both the ADAC and Italian Formula 4 championships in 2016, he won the FIA Formula 3 European Championship with Prema in 2018 before adding the FIA Formula 2 title in 2020.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
His F1 opportunity arrived with Haas in 2021, where he spent two seasons. Schumacher scored his first points at the 2022 British Grand Prix before recording a career-best sixth place in Austria, but was replaced by Nico Hulkenberg for 2023.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
Schumacher subsequently joined Mercedes as a reserve driver, while also carrying out reserve duties for McLaren, before returning to full-time competition with Alpine’s WEC operation in 2024. He claimed three podium finishes across his two seasons with the French manufacturer.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
After making his IndyCar debut with RLL in 2026, Schumacher will now embark on his second season in the series with his new team, having achieved his first top-10 result in Nashville earlier this year.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mick Schumacher has secured his IndyCar future, with the German set to join Meyer Shank Racing for the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":879995,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[572],"tags":[64,63,827,830,828,831,829,826,813,823,825,806,805,824,803,804,822,85],"class_list":["post-879994","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-motosport","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-daniel-ricciardo","tag-f1-calendar","tag-f1-live","tag-f1-results","tag-f1-standings","tag-ferrari","tag-formula-1","tag-lewis-hamilton","tag-max-verstappen","tag-motor","tag-motor-sports","tag-motorsport","tag-motosport","tag-motosports","tag-racing","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/879994","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=879994"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/879994\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/879995"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=879994"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=879994"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=879994"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
