Sunday, September 26, 2021 can become a historic day for Spanish sport and, specifically, for motorsport. The last race of the season of the IndyCar, the GP of Long beach where the spanish Alex Palou will seek to become champion of the prestigious single-seater competition.
Álex Palou, the Spanish motorsport globetrotter who is one step away from making IndyCar history
At 24 years old, Palou arrives at this last round of the World Cup with the title in his hands. His two rivals for the title are the Mexican Patrick O’Ward and the american Josef Newgarden, to those who have a reasonable distance to face the race with optimism. The accounts are simple: it serves him with being 11th, whatever the other two pilots do.
After a life traveling the world, with titles such as the Japanese Super Formula under his belt, the peak of his sports career may come this Sunday and he makes it full of optimism.
Championship fight. Hollywood ending.
