Andretti Global announced on Wednesday that Kyle Kirkwood will have a special livery for this weekend’s Honda Indy 200 at the Mid-Ohio Sportscar course.
To celebrate Honda, Kyle Kirkwood will drive the No.27 Honda Andretti Global Honda.
Honda has dominated the 2025 INDYCAR season with Kirkwood playing a pivotal role in the manufacturer’s success as one of only two drivers to win this season.
The Florida native has captured three wins powered by Honda this year, including the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach, the Detroit Grand Prix and the Bommarito Automotive Group 500 at World Wide Technology Raceway, bringing his career INDYCAR win count to five.
JILL GREGORY, PRESIDENT, ANDRETTI GLOBAL
“Honda has been a phenomenal partner, and their performance this season speaks for itself. We’re proud to have played a key role in their dominance so far. Mid-Ohio is a big weekend for both of us, and we’re honored to run a special livery that celebrates everything we’ve accomplished together. We’re looking forward to delivering a result that reflects the strength of this partnership.”
CHUCK SCHIFSKY, MANAGER, HONDA & ACURA MOTORSPORTS
“We are thrilled to have Honda represented on the No. 27 Andretti Global machine of Kyle Kirkwood this weekend. We’ve had a long partnership with the Andretti organization, and when the chance came up to have Kyle run a Honda-branded car here at the Honda race at Mid-Ohio, we jumped at it. It’s a great opportunity to bring awareness to all parts of the Honda brand—from planes, motorcycles and power products, to road cars and our hybrid-powered Indy cars—especially on this one-year anniversary of INDYCAR going hybrid. We have thousands of Honda associates from our five Ohio manufacturing plants and the North American R&D center coming to watch the race, and seeing that Kyle is one of only two drivers to win so far this year, and all nine races have been won by Honda, we’re hoping we can continue that streak and put on a great show for them.”
