Graham Rahal shared insights into his team, Radical Indianapolis

While Graham Rahal's fans have been reminiscing since IndyCar's post around his 2015 win, he has been up to different things recently. Via his official Instagram account, Rahal took the time to talk about his team, Radical Indianapolis. While shedding light on the same, he had the following to add.

"Hey everyone, I wanted to do a video to talk about Radical, Radical Indianapolis and our racing team that we have. We've had a lot of young guys asking questions. They want to get to IndyCar, they want to get to sports car racing, what's the best path? Of course, you've always had the IndyCar ladder series system which is extremely viable. But there becomes the challenge of budget, particularly this time of year, there's a lot of people that maybe you're on the fence, can't quite afford USF pro or USF junior." Rahal said.

He further went on to add the following:

"You're looking for what to do stay active this year. What I'm here to present you is a great opportunity with Radical. Why is this viable for you? Number 1 is budget, It is significantly cheaper than going with USF pro or USF junior. The second thing is you get to race six race weekends, three races per weekend, so 18 races of the year you're getting a lot of experience and you're going to some great tracks."

Graham Rahal's first Grand Prix participation in the highest class of open-wheel racing in America came in 2008 (Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg). Since then, he has so far amassed six race wins alongside 29 podiums and five pole positions. In the 2024 season, Rahal ended up 18th in the standings with 251 points.
