Jack Harvey Announces Cancer Diagnosis

The news raises uncertainty about the timing of his recovery with potential effects on his 2027 racing program.

Overview

  • Jack Harvey, a 33-year-old British IndyCar driver and FOX Sports pit reporter, announced on Tuesday that he has been diagnosed with cancer.
  • He did not disclose the cancer type, stage, or treatment plan but said he is receiving medical care and strong support from family, Dreyer & Reinbold Racing, FOX and the IndyCar community.
  • Harvey said his goals for 2027 remain unchanged and he plans to be on the grid for the St. Pete season opener and to prepare for the Indianapolis 500.
  • The diagnosis affects both his driving program and his broadcasting duties because he has split recent seasons between racing and serving as a FOX pit reporter since 2025.
  • Harvey began racing in IndyCar in 2017 and started the last two Indianapolis 500s for Dreyer & Reinbold Racing, and further updates on his treatment and fitness will determine whether he can meet his 2027 targets.
