Scott McLaughlin broke through to take the first oval win of his NTT IndyCar Series career under the light during Saturday (July 13) night’s race at Iowa Speedway.
McLaughlin controlled much of the race after beating polesitter Colton Herta off pit road during one of several caution periods which dotted the complexion of the race.
“What got it done tonight is the pit stops, the team,” McLaughlin said after the race. “They got me out in front of Herta there and we sure showed our pace. That’s a big deal today, man. I’ve been working on that for a couple of years. It takes a lot of hard work … I’m really stoked for this whole team, the whole team at Penske. We have another race tomorrow and we start from pole, so let’s go again!”
