About Scott
Scott McLaughlin is a New Zealand racing driver who arrived in IndyCar in 2021 as a three-time Australian Supercars champion looking to prove himself on a new continent. The transition wasn't subtle — he took his first IndyCar win at St. Petersburg in 2022 and reeled off three more victories that year, finishing fourth in the standings as a sophomore.
A near-miss at the 2022 Indianapolis 500 (pole position, P6 finish) signaled how quickly he had adapted. McLaughlin has since established himself as Penske's most natural qualifier, regularly threatening for poles on road and street circuits. His easy personality has made him a fan favorite, but the underlying speed is what keeps him on the #3 car alongside Newgarden and Power.
Scott McLaughlin currently races for Team Penske in the 2026 NTT INDYCAR SERIES, sitting P7 in the standings with 222 points. Track Scott McLaughlin's full season on the Grid Guy interactive standings.
