(Reuters) -Mick Schumacher, son of Formula One great Michael, will be racing on U.S. ovals next year after signing a deal to compete in IndyCar for Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing (RLL), the team said on Monday.

Schumacher, 26, has been driving for Alpine in the World Endurance Championship (WEC) in the last two years after losing his F1 seat with Haas at the end of 2022.
