===Driver/Team Changes===
*Andretti No. 26 driver Colton Herta moves to Formula 1, replacing the Alpine-bound Pierre Gasly (replacing Fernando Alonso who replaced the retiring Sebastian Vettal at Aston Martin) at AlphaTauri. Felix Rosenqvist moves from Arrow McLaren SP's No. 7 to replace him, allowing 2021 champion Alex Palou to switch to that seat from the CGR 10. CGR itself downsizes to three full-time cars, running a split ride with Jimmie Johnson (all the ovals plus Long Beach, Indy GP 1, and Laguna Seca) and former Andretti Formula E driver Oliver Askew (Indy 500 in a fourth entry, plus all of the other road courses); the entry bears No. 48 when Johnson is running and No. 10 when Askew races.
*With Alexander Rossi moving to Arrow McLaren SP in the new third full-time car (#6), Andretti reunites with Kyle Kirkwood from his Indy Lights days as the soon-to-be 24-year-old Floridian takes over the #27. Replacing him at AJ Foyt Enterprises is Indy Lights graduate Benjamin Pedersen. The Danish-American pilot finished 4th in the 2021 Lights standings and provides the funding needed for the entry to continue.
Adjustments from the 2022 NTT INDYCAR Series schedule in terms of new venues have not been substantiated on yet, so the schedule (and therefore the round numbers in the team/driver chart) is that of 2022 including any conflicts with other series.
