‘Super Mac’ plan to race more in America

Triple Supercars champion Scott McLaughlin is looking to expand his racing repertoire beyond IndyCar open-wheelers.
 
Back in Australia for the first time in two years, McLaughlin will be a star guest at next month’s returning Adelaide 500.
 
He excelled in IndyCar this year, winning races and contending for the title.
 
In the latest PARKED UP PLUS podcast, McLaughlin exclusively reveals his plan to augment his 2023 IndyCar title assault with racing in other high-profile American events.

Along with confirming that his plans to contest American long distance sportscar classics like the Daytona 24 Hours and Sebring 12 Hours, he tells PARKED UP PLUS why he is looking forward to his cameo appearance in Adelaide.
