IndyCar team to honor memory of Kyle Busch with its 18 car
Through a great collaboration, Kyle Busch's famed number 18 will be honored in the Indy 500.
Kyle Busch's memory reaches so much more than NASCAR. There have been tributes to the late driver at Charlotte, where the Coca-Cola 600 will take place on Sunday, and in Indianapolis, where IndyCar will have its Indianpolis 500 earlier in the day. A stirring memory will be on the Dale Coyne Racing car driven by Romain Grosjean.
Through collaboration with FOX Sports broadcaster and veteran IndyCar driver Townsend Bell, Joe Gibbs Racing and FOX Sports, the 18 car will feature the font that Busch made famous through his incredible career. ❤️❤️❤️ https://t. co/SjgY24A22A — Dale Coyne Racing (@DaleCoyneRacing) May 23, 2026 "Thanks to Dale Coyne Racing and Joe Gibbs Racing for making it happen," Bell said on social media.
"I’m still struggling to process this tragedy. Kyle Busch was a teammate Lexus. He couldn’t have been more generous when my son first arrived in Charlotte.
He was a friend and I got to see his true character. " The No. 18 was driven by Busch with great success during his time at Joe Gibbs Racing.
