Pato O’Ward has three main goals he can achieve in the 2020 NTT INDYCAR SERIES season, and two are attainable at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Mexican driver O’Ward is not eligible for the Rookie of the Year Award in the series because he competed in seven contests in 2019. But O’Ward is a contender for Indy 500 Rookie of the Year. “I had no idea about being able to run for Indy 500 Rookie of the Year until you just told me,” O’Ward said. O’Ward, a 21-year-old from Monterrey, Mexico, is fourth in the standings. But O’Ward drove with the speed of a youngster and the savvy that comes with experience. O’Ward showed talent that could make him a big winner in 2020. “To be fairly honest, I’ve never had any doubt in myself or the team starting the year,” O’Ward said.
