SIMON PAGENAUD Schmidt Hamilton Motorsports 118 WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEKEND: PENSKE SEEKS HISTORY: Team owner Roger Penske has won the Indianapolis 500 a record 15 times and brings three strong entries in 2012 with IZOD IndyCar Series championship leader Will Power, three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves and 2012 Indianapolis 500 polesitter Ryan Briscoe (right). Can the three drivers become the first team to lock out the podium and complete the Captain’s sweep? DIXON EYES SECOND WIN: Another former Indianapolis 500 winner has a shot at adding a second Baby Borg to his collection. 2008 winner Scott Dixon returns with the formidable Target Chip Ganassi Racing team. Dixon led the most laps in the 2011 race, but didn’t lead the lap that matters the most. Can the Kiwi score his second Indianapolis win? HINCH AND HUNTER-REAY ON HOT STREAKS: Andretti Autosport drivers and front-row starters James Hinchcliffe and Ryan Hunter-Reay enter Indianapolis as two of the series’ strongest challengers to Team Penske’s dominance of the series.

  • HITACHI to CONTINUE TEAM PENSKE PARTNERSHIP in 2018 Multi-Faceted Relationship to Enter Seventh Season with Championship INDYCAR Program
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE HITACHI TO CONTINUE TEAM PENSKE PARTNERSHIP IN 2018 Multi-Faceted Relationship to Enter Seventh Season with Championship INDYCAR Program MOORESVILLE, N.C. (January 15, 2018) – Team Penske and Hitachi Group today announced an extension of their partnership for the 2018 Verizon IndyCar Series season. After a productive five-year relationship working with three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves of Team Penske, the familiar Hitachi branding will transition to the No. 1 Dallara/Chevrolet of reigning INDYCAR champion Josef Newgarden for eight races in the 2018 season. Additionally, Hitachi will continue as an associate sponsor on Team Penske’s other Verizon IndyCar Series entries – the Dallara/Chevrolets driven by Simon Pagenaud, the 2016 series champion and Will Power, the 2014 title winner, along with a return to Castroneves’ No. 3 car for the 102nd running of the Indianapolis 500. “Our partnership with Hitachi continues to deliver for both organizations across a wide variety of business platforms,” said Roger Penske. “Hitachi is deeply involved in our on- track performance as they continue to collaborate with Chevrolet on its winning INDYCAR engine program. Away from the race track, our relationship continues to reach new heights with shared success through various automotive and technology projects, along with joint marketing and promotional initiatives. We are excited to build on this success in 2018.” Hitachi and Team Penske began their partnership in 2012 and it has evolved into one of the successful pairings in the INDYCAR paddock. The industry leaders have aligned for race wins, podium finishes and pole positions and the future is bright with Newgarden, one of the fastest rising stars in motorsports.
