Josef Newgarden scoring the 25th victory of his NTT INDYCAR SERIES career last Saturday night at World Wide Technology Raceway was only a nugget compared to the fact he has drawn within three points of the series lead with two races to go in the season. “We need to get 10 wins a year, that’s where my mind is at.”. And Newgarden has left many tracks in recent years believing he had the car to win. “I think if we can figure out how we can rip off a season with 10 or 12 wins that would be impressive. Foyt (1964) and Al Unser (1970) share the series record for wins in a season with 10. Newgarden said he will continue to win season championships if he can get strong results more consistently. “It’s more than just the wins, it is the consistency,” he said. Blending that with great races where you’re winning is ultimately the package you have to have.
