    Scott McLaughlin is confident he can put last year's poor IndyCar results in the rear-view mirror

    Scott McLaughlin is confident he can put last year's poor IndyCar results in the rear-view mirror


    The Kiwi driver had a difficult 2025 with several unusual mistakes, including a crash during the Indy 500 warm-ups that destroyed his car before the race even started.

    McLaughlin couldn't drive an IndyCar from the end of September to the start of February...but he's certain he'll be set for the start of the season in Florida this weekend.
