Dale Coyne has hired Spanish driver Alex Palou to drive the full IndyCar schedule next season. The hiring comes a month after the team dumped four-time series champion Sebastien Bourdais. IndyCar has had a flurry of seat swapping this offseason. James Hinchcliffe is still looking for a job after the new McLaren team said it didn’t want the Canadian. Most openings have gone to rookies. Bourdais, Hinchcliffe and even Tony Kanaan have nothing yet in IndyCar for 2020. Palou is not well-known in IndyCar and joins a growing rookie field.
