ARCHIVO- En esta foto de archivo, Alex Palou, de España, se prepara para participar en las 500 Millas de Indianápolis. La mala noticia para Palou es que nunca ha corrido en Laguna Seca, la penúltima fecha de la temporada de IndyCar. La buena es que quienes le pueden quitar el campeonato tampoco tienen mucha experiencia. (AP Foto/Darron Cummings, Archivo)

FILE - In this Aug. 13, 2021, file photo, Alex Palou (10) drives during a practice session for the IndyCar Indianapolis GP auto race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indianapolis. The bad news for Alex Palou is that he’s never raced before at Laguna Seca, the penultimate race in the IndyCar championship. The good news? Those trying to wrest the title away from Palou don’t have much experience, either. Laguna Seca only returned to the IndyCar schedule in 2019 and then was canceled last year during the pandemic.
