BIRTH DATE BIRTH PLACE RESIDENCE JUNE 10, 1993 CHRISTCHURCH, NEW ZEALAND CHARLOTTE, NC TWITTER FACEBOOK INSTAGRAM @SMCLAUGHLIN93 /SMCLAUGHLIN93 @SMCLAUGHLIN93 One of the most accomplished racers in the history of Australian Supercars, Scott McLaughlin is excited for a new challenge in 2021 as he transitions to racing in the U.S. and competing for NTT INDYCAR SERIES Rookie of the Year honors this season. After earning his third consecutive Supercars Championship in 2020, McLaughlin made his NTT INDYCAR SERIES debut when he joined Team Penske for the season finale on the streets of St. Petersburg in November. Shifting gears to compete in his first full season of open-wheel racing, McLaughlin will drive the No. 3 PPG Dallara/Chevrolet for Team Penske in 2021. During his four seasons competing for the DJR Team Penske (DJRTP) Supercars team, McLaughlin became one of Australia’s most popular and accomplished racing stars. He produced wins, poles and championships at a record-setting pace for DJRTP. He earned 48 victories and 59 poles for the team while winning three driver’s titles and helping DJRTP secure three team championships. The 27-year-old native of Christchurch, New Zealand enters 2021 ranked third on Team Penske’s all-time wins list, trailing only Brad Keselowski (66 wins) and Mark Donohue (59 wins). He begins the season ranked second on the team’s all-time poles list, just one behind Helio Castroneves (60). Over the course of his nine-year Supercars career, McLaughlin recorded 56 race wins, 106 podium finishes and 76 poles. He hopes to bring that same success to his new position with Team Penske in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES. PPG is proud to sponsor Scott McLaughlin and Team Penske. Celebrating nearly four decades of working together, PPG and Team Penske have one of the longest tenured partnerships in all of motorsports.

The Indy Racing League and the Indianapolis 500
The Indy Racing League and the Indianapolis 500: Increasing Competition in Open-Wheeled Automobile Racing in the United States Robert W. White Department of Sociology and Andrew J. Baker Department of Geography School of Liberal Arts IUPUI We thank Terri Talbert-Hatch and Pete Hylton for their comments and support of Motorsports Studies. Please direct correspondence to Robert White ([email protected]), Professor of Sociology and Director of Motorsports Studies, or Andrew Baker ([email protected]), Lecturer, Department of Geography, School of Liberal Arts, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI), 425 University Boulevard, Indianapolis, Indiana, 46202. 1 The Indy Racing League and the Indianapolis 500: Increasing Competition in Open-Wheeled Automobile Racing in the United States Abstract Over the course of its lengthy history, the popularity of open-wheeled automobile racing in the United States has waxed and waned. This is especially evident in recent years. The 1996 “split” between the Indy Racing League (IRL; later, the IndyCar Series) and Championship Auto Racing Teams (CART; later the Champ Car World Series) severely hurt the sport. Following the split there was a well-documented decline in fan interest from which the sport has not recovered. Less understood, however, is that under the Indy Racing League the Indianapolis 500, the premier event in open-wheeled racing in the United States, became more competitive. Ironically, while fan interest decreased in the Indy Racing League era, the quality of racing increased. The increased competition associated with the Indy Racing League is a historically significant development that bodes well for the future of the sport.

FAST FACT The highest recorded temperature in the U.S. was 134° F (56.7° C) in Death Valley, Calif., on July 10, 1913. The highest recorded track temperature during an Indy car race was 137° F (58.3° C) on July 7, 2013 at Pocono Raceway. Graham Rahal raises his fist in celebration after taking the checkered flag at his home track of Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, putting him within nine points of championship frontrunner Juan Pablo Montoya. John Cote/IMS Photo WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEKEND: MONTOYA LOOKS TO TIGHTEN GRASP ON LEAD: With wins at St. Petersburg and the Indianapolis 500, Juan Pablo Montoya remains atop the Verizon IndyCar Series point standings. The Colombian, who has won four of his previous 10 500-mile races, leads Graham Rahal by nine points and Scott Dixon, Helio Castroneves and Will Power are within striking distance. Can Montoya repeat at Pocono and strengthen his hold on the series championship lead? ANDRETTI SEEKS BREAKTHROUGH WIN AT HOME TRACK: Marco Andretti will compete in a virtual hometown race at Pocono. Andretti can lean on family ties for some advice as Pocono is one of two tracks where all three generations of racing’s most famous family have had success. Andretti’s grandfather, open- wheel great Mario Andretti, won the 1986 race, while his father Michael won pole for the race in 1986. Marco claimed the pole for the race in 2013. KARAM RACES AT HOME: Like the Andretti family, Sage Karam hails from nearby Nazareth, Pa., and will be racing in front of friends and family.

Helio Castroneves Picks up Another Win for Snap-On Racing
NEWS RELEASE For More Information, Contact: For Immediate Release Sara Scarlato To U.S. Publications Only (262) 656-5350 [email protected] Helio Castroneves Picks Up Another Win for Snap-on Racing Penske Teammate Will Power Keeps Season Points Lead KENOSHA, Wis. – September 7, 2010 – Helio Castroneves captured his second IRL victory of the season with a win at the Kentucky Indy 300 on Sept. 4 in Sparta, Ky. The win was the 20 th overall this season for Snap-on drivers. “Team Penske did it again in the IRL,” said Alicia Smales, vice president of marketing for Snap-on Tools. “All three Penske drivers, Will Power, Helio Castroneves and Ryan Briscoe, are in the top five in the season-points standings and, between the three, they have won a combined eight races this year. We want to congratulate Helio on his win and everyone at Snap-on will be cheering on the Penske Racing Team in their last two races of the season.” Castroneves started the race from the eighth position but took advantage of his competitors pitting late in the race for fuel, giving him the opportunity to capture the checkered flag. Castroneves moved up to fourth in the points standings with the win while Power held on to the points lead with an eighth- place finish. Briscoe is fifth overall in the point standings. The Team Penske IRL drivers are off until Sept. 18 when they race in the Indy Japan 300. Snap-on’s NASCAR Sprint Cup and Nationwide drivers will be racing in Richmond this weekend while Cruz Pedregon and the Snap-on Funny Car are off until the NHRA Nationals in Charlotte in on Sept.
