Katherine Legge working on Indy 500 effort, possible Cup race at Phoenix

Katherine Legge used the momentum from her run at the 2024 Indianapolis 500 with Dale Coyne Racing to expand her career into NASCAR in 2025, and with the support of her sponsors, the Briton is keen to make a return to the Speedway.

Efforts to assemble a program to run the Indy 500 went far earlier this year, but Legge was unable to put another entry on the list. With more time to work on a program, the four-time Indy starter wants to make it five and has been speaking with teams to explore her options.

“As long as you’re in with a shot and you feel like you’ve still got it, and I feel like I’ve still got it, I want to race again at Indy. And I’d love to do Phoenix as well and do the Cup weekend with IndyCar and maybe be the only driver who goes there to do both.”
