Larry Foyt on doubts over TataCalde's IndyCar ride at AJFoytRacing: 'We’ve had calls from other drivers interested in taking over the car… We’ve acknowledged their interest but we’re much more focused on trying to keep Tatiana and ROKiT onboard.'
The #11 car has been shared this year by rookie Tatiana Calderon on road and street courses and IndyCar Series veteran JR Hildebrand on ovals.
‘We are trying to work through a difficult situation as I know ROKiT wishes to continue the program but there are some issues which may prevent that. We will continue to either resolve it with ROKiT or try to find alternate funding which is difficult at best at this point in the season…’” “I think ROKiT are happy with us and with Tatiana,” he said. “In that regard, everything is super-positive. She garners a lot of attention which for our sponsors is great. I’m always impressed at the end of every session, the number of fans who want to see her, and she really handles it well.
Although the #14 Foyt-Chevy of reigning Indy Lights champion Kyle Kirkwood is also ROKiT-backed – as it was when driven by Sebastien Bourdais in 2021 – Foyt emphasized that it is not under the same clouds as the #11. For one thing, Bourdais ensured the #14 was granted Leader Circle funding by IndyCar, after finishing well inside the Top 22 in the 2021 championship; secondly, Kirkwood came with a $1.25m Road To Indy scholarship.
