INDYCAR Season Finale: Palou Title Clinched, Dixon Moves to McLaren

The 2026 INDYCAR season finale at Laguna Seca sees Alex Palou clinch his fifth championship, while Scott Dixon departs Chip Ganassi for Arrow McLaren.

The championship battle for second place is heating up as Christian Lundgaard leads Kyle Kirkwood and Pato O’Ward in the chase for the runner-up spot. O’Ward, who swept the Milwaukee Mile doubleheader, aims to capitalize on his recent momentum.

Several high-profile driver changes are set for 2027, including Scott Dixon leaving Chip Ganassi for Arrow McLaren and Felix Rosenqvist moving from Meyer Shank Racing. Despite a 21-year winning streak, Dixon is winless this year and unlikely to break it this weekend. betsport.cv
