What would make Juan Montoya's season in Indycars a success?

Montoya is pushing 40 years old, hasn't driven an open wheel car in a few years, and Indycars are much different than back when he was a winner. Can Juan manage to win a race and/ or finish in the top 5 in points? Or will he just spend the season riding around mid-pack?

Update:

Scott Dixon, the 2013 Indycar Champion, drives for Ganassi. Montoya will be in a Penske car.

    He'll adapt quickly. He was around 0.4s off Power in testing. Win looks likely as does top 5 in points

    I'd say less than one win and lower than 5th in points would be a letdown for his season. I just believe he is a natural open wheel driver and will jump right in with his mix of oval and road course experience.

    Penske is a great team, but the field is so open.

    Win a race, probably. Top 5 points, possibly.

    After all, he is in the same team as last years series winner, so it can't be that bad. ;)

    Oh lol, I thought he would have been Ganassi, since he drove for them in NASCAR.

    Being competitive week to week and one win. After all there is a female who did not do as well and she was thought of as a star.

    consistency has always been montoya's problem, in f1, in nascar, in indys. this year won't be different. he may shine in a couple of races, but he will not be a title contender.

    A good season for him would be if he didnot hit the track dryer.
