Alex Palou


Alex Palou enters 2025 as a three-time INDYCAR SERIES champion (2021, 2023, 2024), making history as the first Spaniard to win an INDYCAR title. He clinched the 2023 championship with a "win and clinch" at Portland, becoming the first driver since 2007 to secure the title before the season finale. With 30 podiums in 67 starts for Chip Ganassi Racing, Palou has also competed and won in Euroformula Open, Spanish Formula 3, GP3, Japanese Formula 3, and Super Formula, where he was 2019 Rookie of the Year.

His interest in racing sparked when he saw a go-kart track while walking to school with his father in Spain.
