Felix Rosenqvist will bring the vibe of Ozzy Osbourne back into the INDYCAR paddock after Meyer Shank Racing unveiled a special livery on the Swede’s No. 60 Honda for this weekend’s Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio.
In what marks the team’s home event, Rosenqvist’s car will carry an Ozzy Osbourne-inspired look for the second consecutive year.
The 2025 race at Mid-Ohio saw Rosenqvist sport one of the most eye-catching liveries of the season: a purple and black Ozzy Osbourne and SiriusXM Ozzy’s Boneyard design.
The livery came to take on even greater significance following Ozzy’s passing just two weeks later last July.
A year on, and this time around a homage will be paid to one of rock music’s most iconic personalities. This year’s livery will also feature long-time collaborator and lead guitarist for Ozzy Osbourne, Zakk Wylde and his band, Black Label Society.
”Last year’s Ozzy design was incredibly well-received, and it’s cool to have it back with another twist this season for the Mid-Ohio race,” says Felix Rosenqvist. ”On the sporting side of things, I have high hopes of continuing our recent strong form. Mid-Ohio is one of my favourite tracks. It’s the site of my first-ever INDYCAR test, and it’s also where I had my first podium in the series back in 2019. I’m thrilled to be back.”
Adding further incentive ahead of round 11 of the 2026 season, Rosenqvist arrives at MSR’s home race with strong momentum to lean on.
On top of the obvious highlight of winning the Indy 500, the Swede has been particularly strong in recent road course events as well, qualifying in the top four at both the Sonsio Grand Prix and the XPEL Grand Prix at Road America.
Rosenqvist was leading the Road America race by a comfortable margin last time out when only a highly unfortunate caution period denied him a likely win.
”We’ve been very competitive on the last two road courses, so that’s a positive sign coming into Mid-Ohio,” says Felix Rosenqvist. ”Furhermore, we were among a group of teams who actually tested here last week. It was hard to read much into it as we were testing different things to the others, but it should give us a bit of an edge. Let’s get after it!”
The Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio gets underway with an opening practice session on Friday. Following Practice 2 on Saturday morning, the stage will be set for qualifying in the afternoon.
Sunday’s race will span 90 laps, going green at 12:50 pm local time (U.S. Eastern).
