Pato O'Ward, Driver, No. 5 Arrow McLaren Chevrolet

"Super excited for a big week in Texas. This is a bit of a homecoming race for me since it’s the closest to home in Mexico, and having lived here for a long time. I'm really excited to see our fans at the Fan Fest and throughout the week at the racetrack. We're off to a solid start on track through the first two races, but we want to push for more and fight for wins.”
