Joe Truscel꧑li has announced that Johnny Uns💙er will pilot his #18 Dallara-Oldsmobile/ entry in the 85th Indianapolis 500.

Truscelli, who has run some of the more prominent names in US single-seater racing over the past few years, gives Unser the chance of a sixth start at the Brickyard, and expects his burgeoning team to give the American🀅 ♈driver a good shot at a result.

"Truscelli Team Racing is very excited to work with Johnny Unseꦓr as its driver for this year's Indy 500," said Truscelli, who has fielded drivers Roberto Moreno and Jaques Lazier in past Indy Racing Northern Light Series events, "We believe in Johnny and intend to give him a competitive opportunity. It's a great feeling to💫 know that we have the same crew that we have had for the last two Indy 500s, and these guys are good."

Unser, the son of the late Jerry Unser, has competed in the 'Greatestಞ Spectacle in Racing' five times, with a best finish of 18th in 1997.

"Truscelli Team Racing demonstrates an impressive history and a quest for excellence at the Speedway," he said, "It is a focused, capable group that is providing me with a first-class ♉opportunity to successfully compete in this event."
