**Arrow McLaren Stays the Course for Indy 500, Aiming for Victory**

INDIANAPOLIS – Arrow McLaren is maintaining a steady approach for the 109th running of the Indianapolis 500, according to team principal Tony Kanaan. Despite Pato O’Ward’s narrow defeat in the 2024 race, Kanaan insists the team will not deviate from its proven strategy.

“We’re not doing anything different,” Kanaan stated, emphasizing the importance of consistency and respecting the historic track. “We respect the racetrack, we have fast race cars, and we’re going to leave it all out there.”

Kanaan, the 2013 Indy 500 champion, will lead a four-car lineup including O’Ward, Nolan Siegel, Christian Lundgaard, and Kyle Larson. He stressed the team’s focus on putting themselves in a position to win, learning from past experiences, and not letting external pressures affect their performance. He expressed confidence in O’Ward, stating, “he was the one that has the good record here.”

While acknowledging the significant lead of Chip Ganassi Racing’s Alex Palou in the IndyCar standings, Kanaan remains committed to maximizing the team’s potential for the remainder of the 2025 season. Lundgaard is currently third and O’Ward is fifth in the standings. He emphasized the importance of capitalizing on opportunities and maintaining focus regardless of results.

“I think we’re on the right path, and racing doesn’t forgive you, you’re only as good as your last race,” Kanaan concluded. Arrow McLaren seeks to add another chapter to McLaren’s racing legacy at the Brickyard.
