Yes, that’s new for the NTT INDYCAR SERIES’ 2022 season. “I like it,” said Pagenaud, who will drive the team’s No. For what it’s worth, Pagenaud said his famous dog, Norman, likes the pink, as well. Pagenaud is off to the best start possible, posting the fastest lap of the three drivers, including Castroneves, at a recent single-day test at Sebring International Raceway. “So far it’s been a really pleasant start with a great team, great atmosphere,” Pagenaud said of joining MSR.

Pagenaud isn’t sure what his reaction will be when he pulls alongside a Team Penske car for the first time. “I mean, seven years of your life doesn’t just go away like that,” he said.
