Team History
Andretti Global carries one of the most famous names in all of motorsport. The team traces its roots to 2003 when Michael Andretti - son of Formula 1 World Champion and Indy 500 winner Mario Andretti - transitioned from driving to team ownership. Originally competing under the Andretti Green Racing banner, the team has undergone several name changes and partnership evolutions, racing as Andretti Autosport for much of the 2010s before rebranding to Andretti Global to reflect the organization's expanding international ambitions.
The Andretti name is synonymous with American racing greatness. Mario Andretti won the 1969 Indianapolis 500 and the 1978 Formula 1 World Championship, and Michael carried on the family tradition with a brilliant CART career that included the 1991 championship and 42 race wins. Under Michael's ownership, the team has continued the family's winning legacy in IndyCar. The team won its first Indianapolis 500 as an owner in 2005 with Dan Wheldon, and Ryan Hunter-Reay added another in 2014 with one of the most dramatic finishes in 500 history. Alexander Rossi's stunning upset victory in the 100th running of the Indy 500 in 2016 - as a rookie on fumes - remains one of the greatest stories the race has ever produced.
Andretti Global has also been a championship-caliber organization, with Ryan Hunter-Reay winning the 2012 IndyCar title and the team consistently fielding competitive multi-car entries. The team made headlines in recent years with its aggressive (but ultimately unsuccessful) bid to enter Formula 1 as an 11th team, demonstrating the global ambitions behind the rebrand. For 2026, the team has assembled an exciting lineup headlined by championship contender Kyle Kirkwood, who leads the IndyCar championship battle. The signing of Will Power from Team Penske brought a former champion and Indy 500 winner to the fold, while Marcus Ericsson adds experience from both IndyCar and Formula 1. The Andretti name remains a pillar of American racing, and the team is hungry for its next championship.
