Arrow McLaren’s Pato O’Ward in the No.5 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet says he hopes the team can build on their momentum from Thermal this weekend at the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach.
In Thermal last time out, Pato came home in second while Christian Lundgaard was third.
Looking forward to the race on Sunday, O’Ward said:
Long Beach is a unique place for us because it has so much cool history, but it hasn’t been kind to us the last couple years. I think we’ve worked hard to address some of those issues from the past, so hopefully we can roll off strong next week and keep the momentum we got from Thermal.
Christian Lundgaard is excited about the race this weekend saying:
It’s been a really strong start for us this year, but we know there’s still more room for us to get better. I’m looking forward to taking that next step forward this weekend at one of the more special races on our calendar. It feels even bigger with it being the 50th anniversary of the Grand Prix of Long Beach, along with the strong partner presence Arrow McLaren has here. I’m excited for another weekend racing with this team.
Nolan Siegel commented saying:
I’m really excited to go racing with the No.6 in its onsemi Arrow McLaren Chevrolet livery for the first time this year. I think it looks fantastic, which is fitting for one of the biggest races on the NTT INDYCAR SERIES calendar. It’s always nice coming back to California, it still feels like a bit of a home race and it’s one of my favorite events of the year. I’m ready to go fight at the front and get some solid points.”
