Alex Palou East three-time Indycar champion and focuses exclusively on this competition. Formula 1 is lagging behind. It’s something you forget and don’t think about. He told Raul Rojo in an interview with ‘Jugones’.
“I did everything I could to get a place. This is the premier class, the one with the biggest brands. They race all over the world. This didn’t happen. I had half a chance, but I didn’t have the opportunity to have a car all year round.“, he said of the moment he signed with McLaren as a test driver.
But he wants to be competing every weekend. Something he couldn’t find in Formula 1.
“I want to compete, not be a reserve. It is closed (the door). “I had my little opportunity and I’m happy to have my big opportunity here in the United States,” concluded the Spanish rider.
Palou was proclaimed a triple Indycar champion this season. Quite an achievement for Spanish motorsport. In the United States, he is already a legend.
