Pato O’Ward is having the best season of his IndyCar career and is on track to finish second in the season championship standings this year. This would be the highest position the 26-year-old driver has achieved in the championship race so far. Despite clinching two wins and nine top five finishes this season with two races remaining, O’Ward feels somewhat overshadowed by Alex Palou’s dominant performance. Palou secured his third consecutive championship at the Portland race weekend and became the youngest driver ever to win four titles. O’Ward and his Arrow McLaren team are focused on breaking curses that have held them back in recent years and have made significant progress this season in doing so. With a strong team behind him and a hunger to close the gap with the front-runner, O’Ward is eager to continue pushing forward and potentially outshine his competitors in the future.
