McLaren confirm Chevrolet power for Alonso’s 2019 Indy 500 entry

McLaren Racing confirmed that they will be running with Chevrolet engines when they make their return to the Indianapolis 500 next year with Fernando Alonso. “McLaren and Chevrolet have a shared pedigree in North American motorsport and the opportunity to reunite the two brands for this special event was just too good to pass up,” said Zak Brown, the chief executive of McLaren Racing. “Like McLaren, Chevrolet has raced in its heart. The company’s reputation in INDYCAR and at this special race is first-class and they will be a powerful partner.” Alonso and McLaren are returning to the Indy 500 once again to try and secure the final leg of Alonso’s “triple crown”.
