Briscoe expected to continue in SPM car for balance of IndyCar season

The Schmidt Peterson Motorsports team hasn’t confirmed it officially, but it is likely that Ryan Briscoe will be in the No. 5 Arrow/Lucas Oil Schmidt Peterson Honda for the final six races of the Verizon IndyCar Series season, after he misses this weekend’s upcoming Honda Indy in Toronto.

Conor Daly will fill in for Briscoe while he races this week with Corvette Racing at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. So Briscoe would race at Auto Club Speedway on June 27 through to the season finale in Sonoma August 30, unless James Hinchcliffe is cleared and ready to go at some point. NBC Sports
