Marcus Ericsson to Remain with Andretti Global

INDIANAPOLIS (Aug. 6, 2026) – Andretti Global, a racing team under the TWG Motorsports umbrella, announced today that Marcus Ericsson will return to the team for the 2027 NTT INDYCAR SERIES season. The Indianapolis 500 Champion will enter his fourth season with Andretti Global, completing the team’s 2027 driver lineup alongside Will Power and Kyle Kirkwood.
Since joining Andretti Global in 2024, Ericsson has played a key role in the team’s continued success. Through the opening 12 races of the 2026 season, the Swede has earned his first career NTT P1 Award, a podium finish at World Wide Technology Raceway, six top-10 finishes and has led 132 laps, putting together one of the strongest seasons of his INDYCAR career.
With Power and Kirkwood already confirmed for 2027, Ericsson’s return provides continuity to a lineup that has consistently delivered speed and results throughout the 2026 season, combining for one victory, two pole positions, 11 top-five finishes and a run for the Championship title entering the final stretch of the season.
Details regarding the team’s partner lineup will be announced at a later date.
JILL GREGORY, PRESIDENT, ANDRETTI GLOBAL
“One of our priorities has been building consistency across our INDYCAR program, and bringing Marcus back is an important part of that. He’s shown exactly what he’s capable of this season through the speed and results he’s delivered. Keeping our driver lineup together next season allows us to build on the chemistry and performance we’ve established as a team.”
MARCUS ERICSSON, DRIVER, ANDRETTI GLOBAL
“I’m really excited about the contract extension. I think it’s been a good year for us. We’ve really been turning things around after last year, and we’ve put in a lot of hard work, and that’s really been paying off. The results haven’t always gone our way this year, but I feel like we’ve been competitive and in the mix on every type of track. That makes me excited for next year and to be able to build on the momentum we’ve created this year. So, I’m super excited about that. I’m very thankful to Jill, Dan, Cassidy and everyone else on the team for the trust they’ve put in me and for believing in me. Now we’re going to finish this season strong, put our heads down and come back even stronger next year.”
