WEST ALLIS, Wis. — Pato O'Ward remained in the headlines Saturday by winning the first race of a doubleheader at the Milwaukee Mile, where he has spent the weekend questioning IndyCar leadership for allowing NASCAR to beat the series to a race in Mexico City. O'Ward is from Monterrey, Mexico, and is IndyCar's most popular driver. His response was Saturday's win at Milwaukee, his third win of the year but first on an oval since Iowa Speedway in July 2022. The three wins are the most in one season for an Arrow McLaren Racing driver and came hours after Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, his F1 counterparts, swept the front row in qualifying for Sunday's race in Italy.
