This weekend Formula 1 returns in Azerbaijan and also the IndyCar Series with the Alabama Grand Prixwhere it will be necessary to be very aware once more of the Mexican Patricio O’Ward, who has had a great start to the season.
‘Pato’ O’Ward he is fully involved in the fight for the championship with the Arrow McLaren team and is shaping up to be one of the favorites to win at Alabama following the first two races in which victory eluded him in the last few metres.
How is ‘Duck’ O’Ward doing in the IndyCar championship?
The Monterrey pilot got two second places in the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg (Florida, USA) and the PPG 375 in Fort Worth, Texas, and was the leader of the championship.
However, in the most recent race in Long Beach, ‘Duck’ O’Ward had a rough participation with a double crash and finished in 17th position. The Mexican ceded the top of the championship to the Swede Marcus Ericssonbut remains as sub-leader.
This is how the IndyCar championship goes:
- Marcus Ericsson – 110 puntos
- Patrick O’Ward – 95 points
- Alex Palou – 91 points
- Josef Newgarden – 89 points
- Kyle Kirkwood – 74 points
