IndyCar Champion Alex Palou Signals Interest in NASCAR Road Course Racing

News summary

Alex Palou, a dominant force in IndyCar with five wins in the first six races of the 2025 season including his first Indianapolis 500 victory, has expressed strong interest in trying NASCAR, particularly on road or street courses. During an appearance on Kevin Harvick's Happy Hour podcast, Palou acknowledged the significant differences between IndyCar and NASCAR but was enthusiastic about the challenge despite admitting he would struggle on oval tracks. Palou's openness to NASCAR could find a pathway through Trackhouse Racing, which often fields part-time entries for world-class drivers on road courses and has connections to Palou's current team, Chip Ganassi Racing. While Palou continues to chase further IndyCar records and titles, including a potential fourth championship, his consideration of NASCAR adds an intriguing dimension to his racing career. His interest in NASCAR aligns with his caution toward Formula 1, where he had limited involvement. Palou's dominance in IndyCar and his willingness to explore other motorsports highlight his versatility and ambition as a driver.
