Alex Palou speaks about staying with IndyCar

The three-time series champion Alex Palou recently spoke about his aspiration to stay with IndyCar. He has often been linked with the Cadillac Formula One team as one of the contenders for the seat. However, the Spaniard has quashed the rumors.

While speaking to Fox Sports, the 28-year-old driver spoke about why he does not want to leave the sport and how he is focused on getting his second Indianapolis 500 win. Here's what he said,

"I don’t want to leave now. Even if they say, ‘No, don’t worry, you can come back in one or two years, what if suddenly everyone is here and I’m never able to catch back up to them? And it wasn’t in my mind last year, and it’s not in my mind this year. It’s getting less and less and less every day, and with this, it’s like, ‘No, I want to get another (Indy 500 victory).’" (via Fox Sports)

Alex Palou is currently focused on winning his fourth IndyCar Series championship.
