Pato O'Ward reconsiders lost 2024 Indy 500

It has forced O’Ward to think back to a yea🥃r ago when he lost out.

“🍌I mean, I feel like in a certain way it explains the unexplainable,” he told Motorꦬsport.com.

“From a gap that you wouldn't be able 🌌to see any other car on the grid close.

“At that moment, at least in the last lap, the way that he just caught up even when the 🦄toe was broken a bit and just🙈 cleared.

“Like the ♛speed, the natural speed of those cars currently. Even without this piece.

“What makes me🅺 wonder is that... that's something we can see. I wonder what else and what other things are among those cars that we cannot see, that explain the ability to do some of the things where ♔you're like 'How are they doing this?'

“But I don't want to get into it really. I think that's just more motivation to when we actually getꦉ it done and we beat them. It's going to feel real good.”

O’Ward continue🐻d to rage: “It's 🐓important to also realise that while there's so much at stake.

“The team that is also doing these infractions owns the series. They own the Speedway. 🅰They own the 🀅series.

“They are the benchmark.📖 They're the heroes to many of us.

“We🐻 are the underdogs striving to be like them. We are the team that's striving to beat them.

“What example are you setting? First of all for your fans. Second of all for the honor of your own series. And three: what are you 🍷showing people? Are you doing that because you don't believe in your drivers?

“You've got amazing drivers in your team. I get that we're always pushing the limits of what's legal or꧒ not in order to gain that advantage, (but) it's not a good look."

Penske have fired๊ three top executives in the days since t🥃hey failed their technical inspection. Tim Cindric is among those to be shown the door.

Chip Ganassi also questioned the team’s integrity and called for them to be held to a higher standard b♓e🅺cause Roger Penske owns IndyCar.
