Alexander Rossi Facts

He had first come into the spotlight in 2006 when he had stood 3rd in the 2006 Skip Barber National Championship. At the age of 14, he was the youngest driver to earn a ‘Top 3’ finish in the championship’s history.

In 2016, he had won the coveted Indianapolis 500 event in his very first attempt. He was the first rookie since 2001 and the American rookie since 1928 to achieve the feat. It was, coincidentally, the 100th edition of the Indianapolis 500.

After serving as a test driver in Formula One from 2012 to 2014, he had eventually earned a chance to drive competitively in 2015. He drove 5 races for Manor Marussia F1 Team including his home Grand Prix in the United States. His best F1 result (12th), incidentally, came in that race.

In 2018, he had participated with fellow IndyCar driver Conor Daly, in the 30th season of the adventure reality game show The Amazing Race. They had finished in 4th place.
