This guys deserves it all!

I first learned about Pato when he was in LMPC. Jeremy Shaw always had great things to say about him and how he should have been in Indycar back then.

[@joebarrera334]

Pato is wise beyond his years haha

[@timford3599]

Robin Miller (M.P. as well) were advocating for Pato for a number of years. They were all but demanding that an IndyCar team sign him ASAP. And you know what? They were absolutely right. Pato is definitely an elite driver. Hoping for a good season for Pato! He's always had a good head on him!

[@John-jl9de]

Thanks for the coverage, it's much appreciated.
good luck Pato.

Oh man, IndyCar race in Monterrey with The Warning playing a headline concert on Saturday evening would be killer! I'd go in a heartbeat.

[@mattg9971]

Going to race in mexico would be absurdly cool

[@micko_music]

Thanks for the video 🤝

[@richardsilvestri6874]

I think those tough few years after Indy lights made him wiser and stronger

[@ppr1134]

Thanks for this video

[@mountcomfort740]

Great perspective from a youngster

[@gizmobowen]

Despite the swerve in his career, sure glad he's here.

So cute as a kid... Patito O'Ward

[@benmalec3258]

Aww, no love for LMPC! As a spectator I really loved that class, open cockpit so you could easily see the driver, and they seemed to race pretty well!

[@richardsilvestri6874]

Nice person too!

[@captainjosue]

LATINO HEAT 🔥 PATO PATO PATO

[@izzdin6228]

When he's done with driving, I'm voting him for Indycar Prez.

[@mattg9971]

Ngl I would be kind of sad to lose Pato to F1
