Conor Daly given passing award

Conor Daly has been honoured with Tag Heuer's "Don't Crack Under Pressure" award for passing the most cars during the 2016 Verizon IndyCar season.

The Dale Coyne Racing, competing in his first full season, made 87 passes during the season. Second was Graham Rahal with 81 passes.

"I have to thank TAG Heuer for being a part of this series and offering this award," Daly is quoted by RACER. "The No. 18 DCR Honda was always well equipped for the race distance and gave me a chance to move forward. It was always going to be tough to compete for Rookie of the Year after Alex [Rossi] won the Indy 500 but to still come out of the year with an award for our race performance means a lot. That said; my next goal is to improve on my qualifying performance!"
