Arrow McLaren had plenty to celebrate with Pato O'Ward winning his second IndyCar race in three starts and top boss Zak Brown in Toronto. It first took a team meeting.

With McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown in attendance, O’Ward used timely pit stops and supplied the necessary speed when it counted to claim Sunday’s Ontario Honda Dealers Indy Toronto. The result was the Mexican star’s second win on the year, coming in successive weeks after he claimed the opening leg of the Iowa Speedway doubleheader.

Alex Palou looked like he was preparing a knockout punch with five races to go, but Pato O’Ward turned the tables on his rival in Toronto and landed a big shot of his own to keep the title quest alive.

Pato O'Ward is targeting his best title fight finish of his career with a sizable cushion for second place and a long shot at tracking down Alex Palou.

Arrow McLaren star Pato O'Ward has issued a definitive update over his chances of switching from his current racing discipline to a full-time contract in F1. The Mexican star competes in IndyCar and currently sits second in the standings after 12 rounds, chasing championship leader Alex Palou in the 2025 campaign.
