Tony Kanaan said Wednesday that the 107th Indianapolis 500 in May will mark his final IndyCar race.

The winner of the 2013 Indy 500, the 48-year-old Brazilian finished in third place a year ago driving for Chip Ganassi Racing. He has 12 top-10 finishes in his 21 starts at the Indy 500.

This season, he will attempt to qualify for the May 28 race as part of Arrow McLaren. His last effort has been dubbed “Capitulo Final” — “Final Chapter” in his native Portuguese.

“It’s been a wonderful journey, but it’s not done yet,” Kanaan said in a video that he posted on social media. “I will still have the pleasure to drive through the bricks one more time. Thank you all, and I’ll see you on Race Day.”

Kanaan won the 2004 IndyCar Series championship.

He previously announced his retirement three years ago, but after he drove in the 2020 Indy 500 with no fans in the stands at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in the midst of the pandemic, he changed his mind.

For his career, Kanaan has 17 wins, 15 poles, 74 top-3 finishes and 134 in the top 5.

The ironman of IndyCar, he had 317 consecutive starts in a streak that started in June 2001 and ended in 2020.
