Armstrong, who leads the rookie standings despite running a non-oval schedule in CGR’s #11 car, has scored top-10 finishes in half of his eight IndyCar starts.
He’s handed over the car to Takuma Sato for all of the oval events but has set his sights on running full-time with the team that leads this year’s championship with Alex Palou.
When asked by Autosport what his ideal 2024 plan would look like, he replied: “I haven't exactly kept it a secret, but I'd love to stay here at Chip Ganassi Racing.
“I think I've been reasonably vocal about trying ovals for the first time. It would be a dream come true to compete at the Indy 500.
“At the moment my focus is on just getting good results because my own results are going to help me in the long-term. It's not really in my hands on the contractual side, let's say.
“All I can do is just compete at the maximum of my ability, try and stay present, which is fairly easy seeing as though it's going well. The team, it's a very enjoyable environment.
“I feel like it's all trending in the right direction. I just have to keep pumping out some good results.”
Armstrong’s chances of retaining his seat are strengthened by the likely exit of Palou and team-mate Marcus Ericsson, although commercial requirements will play a role.
