A lack of sponsorship funding has ended the chances for Abel Motorsports to contend at the running of the 2024 Indianapolis 500.
Abel Motorsports was up against the clock to be the 35th entrant in the 108th edition of the Indy 500, with Friday marking the deadline. Despite its best efforts, team manager John Brunner confirmed to Motorsport.com that his squad will not be among the participants. 'We're out,' Brunner said. 'We're pulling the plug.' Brunner also noted that there would be no exemptions after the fact, either. 'We are absolutely done,' Brunner said.
Last year's Indy 500 car is owned by Neil Enerson, which means Abel would be driving a second chassis that ordered from Dallara last October and finally delivered on April 8th and featured three pages listing various shortages. With that, though, Abel Motorsports will continue to take the necessary steps to press forward. 'There's a lot of hard work that's put into this,' Brunner said. 'We're not stopping what we're doing.
