Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Jon Bon Jovi kept the faith that four-time Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge winner and Meyer Shank Racing minority partner Helio Castroneves would keep the Fastest Seat in Sports two-seater between the walls when the tandem led the 27-car field during pace laps Sunday around the 14-turn, 1.8-mile St. Petersburg street circuit. “How about I buy a team, and we’ll start there,” he said. Scott Dixon had 11 top-10 finishes, all inside of the top five, in 14 starts during his championship winning season in 2020. Alex Palou had 12 top-10 finishes, 10 in the top five, in a championship effort for the 2021 season. Will Power had 13 top-10 finishes, 12 in the top five, in his 17-race championship run in 2022. Just one team among the 10 NTT INDYCAR SERIES organizations in the paddock brought the same driver lineup from the end of the 2023 season into 2024 – Team Penske.
