Team Penske is aiming to score its first NTT IndyCar Series title since 2022 (Will Power) with its three-driver lineup of Josef Newgarden, Scott McLaughin and Power.

Ahead of the March 2 season opener on the streets of St. Petersburg (Fla.), heres a look at each driver:

No. 2 Josef Newgarden

Newgarden may have been Alex Palous top threat for the title last season had Newgarden not been disqualified from his season-opening victory at St. Petersburg.

Despite the early-season penalty, Newgarden rebounded with a triumphant second straight Indianapolis 500 victory aboard the No. 2 Chevrolet for Team Penske.

Newgarden placed eighth in the standings in what was perhaps a down year for the two-time champion.

No. 3 Scott McLaughlin 

McLaughins transition from Repco Supercars to the IndyCar Series was arguably completed after the Kiwi earned his first oval victory of his career at Iowa Speedway.

McLaughlin snagged two additional wins, along with a pole position for the Indy 500.

The driver of the No. 3 Chevrolet was third in the standings, despite also being disqualified from the race at St. Petersburg.

No. 12 Will Power

Power looked to be on his way to a third IndyCar Series championship at times throughout the 2024 season. Three victories in the final 11 races propelled the driver of the No. 12 Chevrolet to within striking distance of Palou.

However, a seat belt issue during the finale at Nashville (Tenn.) Superspeedway derailed his title hopes.

Power, whos entering a contract year with Team Penske, will be looking for a strong 2025 season to secure his future.
