The Woking-based team has long considered O’Ward a potential candidate to make the switch from American racing to F1 in the long term.

The only native of Hawaii to start the Indianapolis 500, Ongais was nicknamed “Danny On-The-Gas” and the “Flyin’ Hawaiian” for his bravery and commitment in overpowered late ’70s Indy cars, but his love of speed had shown itself far earlier.

The three-time Supercars champion won last year’s rookie of the year award, managing a best finish of second at last year’s opening Texas race, but tended to struggle more on the street venues and failed to crack the top 10. On the streets of St. Petersburg – the one IndyCar track he had raced on

The race came alive on the restart on lap 179, when Chase Briscoe, who didn’t pit, led the way followed by Elliott, Alex Bowman and Larson.

8:36 AM ET Ukraine’s motor racing federation has asked Formula One’s governing body, the FIA, to ban all Russian and Belarusian drivers amid the ongoing war in its country.

It has long been a regular bone of contention among IndyCar front-runners that backmarkers often fight hard to remain on the lead lap when they’re about to be lapped, hoping for a caution flag that will bunch the field, allowing them to latch onto the back of the pack. On road and street courses they
With F1 teams getting their first runs of the new 2022 machinery, many were caught by surprise by the bouncing phenomenon their drivers experienced as their cars hit top speed on the straight.

The Korean marque showed a significant improvement in speed and reliability on the snow highlighted by Neuville leading the event on Friday before ultimately finishing second, 22s behind winner Toyota’s Kalle Rovanpera.

Team Penske’s McLaughlin made a clean start from his first-ever pole position in the series, but team-mate Power, the only driver in the top 10 to start the race on the harder tyres, appeared to spin up coming out off the final turn and lost places to both Andretti Autosport’s Colton Herta and Rinus VeeKay
McLaren’s racers have driven many laps that have left lasting memories.

Austin’s Daytona victory, which he achieved on team founder Roger Penske’s 85th birthday, cemented his place in the end-of-season Playoffs at the earliest opportunity. His father says the #2 car’s maiden success in the 500 was significant in many ways for the team, since Brad Keselowski left the outfit for an owner/driver role at Roush

Now the native New Zealander will have to see
Colton Herta is a pleasure to interview, primarily because he can’t help telling the truth. While he’s not going to lay his soul bare and may not reveal everything he’s thinking, if he provides an answer then he means it. For instance, last month during the IndyCar media days, he inevitably had to field questions
Ferrari completed more mileage than any other team across the three days of running at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, while Sainz topped the driver chart with 236 laps.
