Rookie of the Year was Fabrizio Barbazza, who finished 12th in points.

Defending series champion and defending Indy 500 winner Bobby Rahal
and his Truesports team made a highly publicized switch from the March
chassis to the up-and-coming Lola chassis. Truesports, however, stayed
with the proven Cosworth engine. For 1987, the Ilmor Chevrolet Indy V-8
expanded its participation, fielding cars with Penske Racing, Newman/Haas
and Patrick. Mario Andretti scored the engine's first Indy car victory in the
season opener at Long Beach. Also joining the series full-time was the
Judd AV V-8 (badged initially as the Brabham-Honda), and later in the
season Porsche made their Indy car debut. Penske resumed their in-house
chassis program, but after dismal results with the PC-16, the cars were
parked during practice at Indy in favor of the March 86C.
