(Reuters) - Two-time Indianapolis 500 Champion Takuma Sato said on Monday that switching to a new team is never easy but he is excited for the challenge that awaits as he prepares for his debut with Dale Coyne Racing next month.

Sato, the only Japanese driver to win the Indianapolis 500, signed with Dale Coyne Racing for the 2022 IndyCar Series season and the 44-year-old said he cannot help but feel young again as he closes in on his first start with the team.
