Palou, Honda, Claim 2021 NTT INDYCAR Championships
September 27, 2021 — LONG BEACH, Calif.
- Honda wins its 10th, and fourth consecutive, Manufacturers’ Championship
- Alex Palou claims Drivers’ Championship with fourth-place finish at season-ending Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach
- Colton Herta completes winning weekend for Honda with Long Beach victory
Chip Ganassi Racing’s #alexpalou clinched the 2021 #nttindycarseries Drivers’ Championship with a fourth-place finish today at the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach. Palou became the 10th Honda-powered driver to win an Indy car title, and the championship was the 18th for Honda since it entered North American open-wheel #racing in 1994.
Needing only an 11th-place or better result to secure the title, Palou kept his nose clean on the unforgiving downtown streets that make up the temporary Long Beach street circuit, but continued to run in the lead pack through most of the 85-lap contest to give team owner Chip Ganassi his 14th Indy car title.
Honda also powered today’s race winner, as Andretti Autosport’s #coltonherta led 43 of the 85- laps to notch his third victory of 2021, and the first at his ‘home’ Long Beach circuit.
