. smclaughlin93 says he never lost heart that a second IndyCar win was coming because he knew the 3 Penske-Chevy had the speed
After scoring a win in the season-opener at St. Petersburg, and a very close runner-up finish at Texas, the 29-year-old New Zealand had not scored a top five over the next five rounds.
Aside from when Andretti Autosport mistakenly left Colton Herta out on track when another caution was imminent, McLaughlin retained the lead thereafter, soaking up all the pressure from eventual runner-up Palou all the way to the checkered flag. “Super-proud of everyone to get win number two. We knew we had it in us, it was just about executing and that was on my end as well, so I’m really proud of everyone…
“But it is what it is, we’ll learn and move on. I think we made some changes which certainly helped us today, and thankfully we did them.”
