NEWTON, Iowa – A return to his home state of Iowa, including a dominating victory by his driver, added up to another happy homecoming for Team Penske chief mechanic Travis Law. When Josef Newgarden drove to a decisive victory in Race 2 of the Iowa INDYCAR 250s on Saturday night, July 18, it was the second year in a row that Law celebrated in Victory Lane at Iowa Speedway. “Travis Law, he’s an incredible chief mechanic,” Newgarden said. Newgarden went out and proved it in Saturday night’s race. “We’ve been lucky enough to have some pretty good cars here with him. Newgarden was very upset after his fifth-place finish and took it out on the field in Saturday night’s race. “Josef was pretty ticked off Friday night, I’m not going to lie about it,” Ward said. The good thing now is we leave tonight, feeling pretty good about how we finished this stint.
