Michael Shank on calling the winning shots at Indy and life after Felix Rosenqvist | RACER Weekly

When Meyer Shank Racing made the strategy call that put Felix Rosenqvist in the frame for a 2026 Indianapolis 500 win, the Swede sealed the deal with a classic last-lap move. But just weeks later, Rosenqvist announced he’d be moving from MSR to Arrow McLaren for the 2027 NTT IndyCar Series. MSR founder and co-owner Michael Shank joins RACER Weekly to talk about his team’s second Indy 500 win, its momentum-building alliance with Chip Ganassi Racing, and how Rosenqvist’s shock exit from a race-winning seat brings big opportunities for a team knocking on the door of IndyCar’s elite. Plus, how exiting IMSA will boost MSR’s open-wheel ambitions, and why a new-for-2028 racecar can supercharge IndyCar’s upward trajectory.
