In a major technical coup ahead of the 2027 IndyCar campaign, Arrow McLaren has successfully poached two highly skilled engineers from rival powerhouse Chip Ganassi Racing. This aggressive recruitment drive highlights the team's relentless ambition to fortify its engineering department.
Veteran engineers Chris Simmons and Ross Bunnell are both slated to make the high-profile switch at the conclusion of the calendar year. According to reports confirmed directly by Ganassi, both men are currently fulfilling their non-compete clauses extending through December before officially taking on their new roles.
Simmons has served as Performance Director at Ganassi throughout Alex Palou's sensational championship era, securing five titles in six seasons. His immense behind-the-scenes contributions mean his departure will undoubtedly be felt heavily within the Ganassi operation.
This massive engineering acquisition directly aligns with the roster upgrades secured by McLaren for the upcoming season. Bringing in seasoned minds provides an immediate advantage in extracting maximum performance from the machines on race weekends.
Furthermore, bolstering the technical infrastructure is a crucial step toward preparing for the introduction of the new IR-28 chassis in 2028. Ending a 14-year stability period with the DW12, the brand-new chassis architecture will present an entirely unique set of complex challenges.
Armed with a more robust group of tenured personnel working behind the scenes, McLaren is positioning itself strongly to master the new era of regulations. The organization continues its determined pursuit of a maiden series championship and Indianapolis 500 victory.
