Sato is 42 years old, Ed Carpenter 38 and Tony Kanaan 44 – an average of 41.3 years — and their combined number of INDYCAR starts is 723.
Takuma Sato: “With the combination of experience, the team behind (us) and the race craft, all those things – I think age is sometimes something, but it is not everything.”
Team Penske’s Simon Pagenaud made a lot of noise in May by winning both races at Indianapolis Motor Speedway: the INDYCAR Grand Prix and the Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge.
Newgarden’s average finish in those races is 6.2, Rossi’s is 9.0, Scott Dixon’s is 5.4.
