The NTT IndyCar Series debut of the brand-new hybrids at Mid-Ohio recorded a 96.3-percent success rate, a remarkable achievement for the mid-season introduction of the Chevy and Honda energy recovery systems. Honda led 53 of the 80-lap race, with Alex Palou and Chevy took 27 combined laps between Pato O’Ward and Scott McLaughlin in a closely-fought battle. Pato O’Ward’s final 24 laps secured General Motors as the first engine manufacturer to win a hybrid race in IndyCar. The event at Mid-Ohio was celebrated with Pato O’Ward’s win, Mark Stielow from GM expressing excitement for the teamwork displayed by the No. 5 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet team. Despite a hybrid-related issue for Scott Dixon, the overall reliability of the energy recovery systems showcased a successful collaboration between IndyCar, Chevy, Honda, and Dallara. Moving forward, IndyCar anticipates the evolution and optimization of the hybrid power unit’s performance, beginning with the upcoming oval event at Iowa Speedway.
