Chip Ganassi Racing have signed British driver Ed Jones to their team, after missing out on Kiwi Brendon Hartley.
Jones will team up with Kiwi and four-time IndyCar champion Scott Dixon for the 2018 season.
"This is truly an honour to have the opportunity to drive for Chip, his organizsation and to represent NTT DATA," said Jones.
"Chip runs one of the biggest and best motor racing teams in the world, and equally as important, is a proven winner across each series he competes in, from Le Mans to Indianapolis and beyond
"I want to get up to speed quickly and learn as much as I can. Scott is a legend in the sport and to get the chance to team with him is an amazing opportunity."
Jones will take the seat that Hartley had been linked to, before getting his Formula One opportunity with Toro Rosso.
The 27-year-old Hartley will spend the rest of 2017 racing with Toro Rosso, replacing Daniil Kvyat, and is a strong favourite to remain with the team for next year.
