Alex Palou is a Spanish IndyCar driver for Chip Ganassi Racing, where he drives the No. 10 Honda. A four-time NTT IndyCar Series champion, Palou has become one of the defining drivers of the modern era with his precision on road and street courses, calm race management, and rare season-long consistency. Born in Sant Antoni de Vilamajor near Barcelona, Spain, Palou built his career through European and Japanese junior categories before moving to IndyCar in 2020. He won his first series title in 2021, then added championships in 2023, 2024, and 2025. His 2025 season also included victory in the Indianapolis 500, making him the first Spaniard to win both an IndyCar championship and the Indy 500. Palou’s rise has made him a central figure at Chip Ganassi Racing alongside veteran teammate Scott Dixon, and a frequent benchmark for rivals such as Pato O'Ward, Josef Newgarden, Scott McLaughlin, and Kyle Kirkwood.
Palou enters the 2026 IndyCar season as the reigning series champion and points leader after a fast start with three wins in the first five races. Driving the No. 10 Honda for Chip Ganassi Racing, he has 205 points, three victories, one pole, four top-five finishes, and four top-10s through five starts. His early 2026 form has extended the dominance he showed in 2025, when he won eight races, captured the Indianapolis 500, and sealed his fourth IndyCar title.
Obecny mistrz Alex Palou właśnie wywalczył pięć prostych pole position w IndyCar na torze Road America, dorównując wyczynowi po raz ostatni widzianemu w 1988 roku. To najwyraźniejszy znak, że walka o tytuł w 2026 roku może przechylić jego szalę na korzyść.
