McLaren and Fernando Alonso will return to the Indianapolis 500 next year as the Spanish driver continues his pursuit of motorsport's triple crown.
Alonso, who will retire from F1 at the end of the year, raced at the Indy 500 in a McLaren-entered car in 2017 but was forced to retire with an engine failure.
He will return in 2019 with the aim of emulating Graham Hill, who is the only driver to win the Monaco Grand Prix, the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Indy 500 during the course of his career. After winning Le Mans this year, Alonso is only missing the Indy 500 to complete the set.
