“We first talked to Josh over three years ago, so we are delighted to now add him to the Andretti Global INDY NXT family for the 2026 season. We have watched Josh develop as a driver over the past few years, not just in INDY NXT, but also through his experience racing in Europe. Josh put in many strong performances over the second half of the 2025 season, and we expect him to challenge for the INDY NXT Championship in 2026.”
