Mick Schumacher set for Meyer Shank Racing move in 2027 IndyCar reshuffle

Meyer Shank Racing has announced that Mick Schumacher will join its IndyCar line-up for the 2027 season, adding a former Formula 1 driver and current series rookie to a market undergoing substantial change.

The move was identified by Fox Sports as one of the latest developments in the 2027 driver market. Schumacher had been left looking for a drive after Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing sold one of its charters to Dreyer & Reinbold Racing.

That charter sale reduced Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing’s entry from three cars to two. Dreyer & Reinbold Racing is also set to give Conor Daly a full-time seat in 2027.

Arrow McLaren will bring together six-time IndyCar series champion Scott Dixon and Felix Rosenqvist after the 2026 season. Dixon, who won the 2008 Indianapolis 500, is set to leave Chip Ganassi Racing after driving for the team since 2002. Rosenqvist is described in the source material as the 2026 Indianapolis 500 winner.

Dixon’s departure ends a long association with Chip Ganassi Racing, while his move and Rosenqvist’s arrival form part of changes that also include the release of Christian Lundgaard and Nolan Siegel at the end of the season.

Team Penske, Andretti Global and Ed Carpenter Racing are expected to retain their 2026 driver line-ups for 2027. The complete line-ups and contract terms for the coming season have not been provided.
