🇲🇽 Patricio O'Ward

Patricio "Pato" O'Ward is a Mexican driver best known for his career in the IndyCar Series, where he races for Arrow McLaren and holds ties to the McLaren Driver Development Programme, including a reserve role with the Formula One team. He rose through the junior ranks to claim the 2018 Indy Lights championship and has since become a familiar presence at the Indianapolis 500, finishing runner-up on two occasions. Within Racer DB, his tracked record centers on his appearances in IMSA WeatherTech competition, driving for United Autosports USA.[1]

In that IMSA WeatherTech capacity, O'Ward's record currently shows three career starts with no wins, no podiums, and no championships, reflecting a limited sample size within this particular series rather than his broader open-wheel resume. His Racer Rating stands at 6,471, placing him 98th among active drivers on the platform's Elo-style scale. His most recent season shows one round contested in 2026, with no wins or podiums and a 60th-place standing, and his current status in this series is listed as retired. As a result, his IMSA WeatherTech profile represents only a narrow cross-section of a driver whose primary reputation has been built elsewhere in motorsport.[2]
