Life outside F1 is not so bad for US racer Alexander Rossi. Having failed to secure a full-time seat in Europe, the 24-year-old went back home to compete in a maiden IndyCar campaign. Last Sunday, he became the first rookie driver since Helio Castroneves in 2001 to win the 100th running of the iconic Indy 500. Besides drinking a bottle of milk in Victory Lane, Rossi duly indulged in the tradition of kissing the famous yard of bricks of the Indianapolis Motors Speedway.
