DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — They’ve proven themselves champions in other motorsports disciplines, but Josef Newgarden and Scott McLaughlin know they’re starting from scratch once again as they prepare to take on the Rolex 24 At Daytona. Newgarden and McLaughlin, NTT IndyCar Series drivers for Team Penske, were named Monday as co-drivers for the No. “There’s a lot of variables that we’re not familiar with, both Scott and myself, so we’re going to be getting up to speed to some degree,” Newgarden said. Both drivers said they’ll also reach out to members of Team Penske who’ve competed at the Rolex 24 before, as well as some of the other IndyCar drivers who are Rolex 24 veterans, for their insights. They’re also happy to be part of a team with a championship pedigree in Tower. We’re there to go after a win and try and help John get a Rolex.”.
