2024 IndyCar standings | GRR
Josef Newgarden got his 2024 IndyCar campaign off to the perfect start with victory in the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. The perennial front-runner had a relatively poor season in 2023 by his incredibly high standards, but he won the inaugrual race of the season for the first time since 2019, the year of his second and last IndyCar championship to date.
Team Penske looks to have the early edge in terms of performance, with Scott McLaughlin and Will Power coming home third and fourth, only Pato O’Ward in his McLaren had an answer. Chip Ganassi Racing struggled for pace, Alex Palou in sixth was the team’s highest scorer, while Scott Dixon ended up a disappointing ninth.
Colton Herta put in an outstanding drive to finish fifth for Andretti Global, Felix Rosenqvist bagged a good haul of points for Meyer Shank Racing in seventh ahead of Alexander Rossi’s McLaren. Rinus Veekay rounded out the top ten for Ed Carpenter Racing.
