Andretti Driving Indy for Petty

Andretti Driving for Richard Petty in Indy 500

Richard Petty is headed to Indy with John Andretti. Richard Petty Motorsports will field a car to be driven by Andretti in the Indy 500.

Petty and Andretti have won together before. Andretti drove for Petty Enterprises in the NASCAR Cup series from 1998 to 2003. He has also driven cars for A.J. Foyt, Cale Yarborough and DEI.

Andretti has competed in nine previous Indy 500 races. His best finish is 5^th. In 1994 Andretti did double-duty, racing in the Indy 500 and then flying to Charlotte to race in the Coca Cola 600 on the same day.

Richard Petty Motorsports does not currently field a car in the Indy Racing League, so this looks like a one off deal to run Indy
