Will Power, the Andretti Global driver, has highlighted consistency as key to competing with Alex Palou, who has proven to be nearly unbeatable since joining Chip Ganassi Racing. Power, who won his second series title in 2022, has noted that Palou has achieved three consecutive championships and a total of 16 victories, including the latest Indy 500.
At the recent street race in Arlington, Power secured third place, a significant improvement with his new team, while his teammate Kyle Kirkwood took the victory. This performance has generated expectations that Andretti Global could challenge Palou in upcoming tests.
“I feel capable of competing for the win in every race this season,” Power said. “The speed is there, and we have the ingredients to fight for the championship. It has been solid so far.” According to Power, Palou represents the standard in IndyCar, and he warned that no mistakes can be made because Palou will exploit any weakness to outpace his rivals.
Power added that one must excel in all phases of the race, including qualifying, strategies, and pit stops, and everything needs to be under control to challenge the Ganassi team. “I cannot identify any weakness in them; they are good in every aspect,” he commented.
With the next Grand Prix at Barber Motorsports Park, which has been a difficult track for Andretti Global in recent years, Power acknowledges the importance of this event: “It will be a great test to see if we have closed the gap on road circuits. There is no margin for error; we have to be perfect.”
