Andretti Global will again field a car for Marco Andretti in the Indianapolis 500, Andretti announced Jan. 7.

Andretti will pilot the MAPEI-sponsored No. 98.

The company will also continue to sponsor Kyle Kirkwood‘s full-time No. 27 in the series.

“Our partnership with MAPEI over the 2024 season was such an excellent addition to our Andretti INDYCAR program,” Doug Bresnahan, Andretti CCO, said in a team release. “The constant of the MAPEI brand on Kyle Kirkwood’s No. 27 throughout the full season paired with MAPEI’s increased presence as the primary partner for Marco Andretti’s No. 98 at the 2024 Indianapolis 500 was the perfect way for our team to expose a new partner to all the great opportunities the NTT IndyCar Series has to offer, and we are honored to have MAPEI back on board in 2025 for what is sure be another exciting season.”

After running full time in IndyCar for over a decade, Andretti has run just the Indy 500 since 2021, with a best finish in that span of 17th in 2023.
