O'Ward says IndyCar cockpit is 'unbearable' in Nashville heat/humidity, especially since he doesn't have a cool suit...
O’Ward, who remains firmly in the title hunt with four rounds to go, qualified fifth in the Arrow McLaren SP-Chevrolet for tomorrow’s race, but said he found the slow sections of the track “horrible” due to the lack of ventilation in his cockpit.
“Like, I think this is probably going to be the worst race. I cannot explain how horrendous it is inside of the car. “Every braking zone, even with me trying to clear it out, I'm still like splatting sweat all over my visor. It's horrible.” “I didn't think it was going to be this bad. It's worse than what I remember last year [in Nashville]. It's really, really bad.”
