. IMS IndyCar winner AlexanderRossi on keeping himself mentally strong during his victory drought: 'You just have to remember that you've done it before, you can do it again' FollowAndretti NAPARacing
Rossi took over the lead of the Gallagher Grand Prix on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course, after Andretti Autosport-Honda teammate Colton Herta suffered a mechanical issue at half-distance. Rossi, who hadn’t won since June 2019, went on to lead 44 laps, holding off the impressive rookie Christian Lundgaard to clinch his eighth IndyCar win.
“I think as a unit, that's one of our strengths is being able to continue to just push forward. It's a big team win and a big thank you to the whole organization. Obviously the cars were fast. It sucks what happened to Colton but I've had my share of things. It comes full circle, I guess, sometimes, so it's good to be up there.”
Rossi will leave Andretti Autosport at the conclusion of the season to join Arrow McLaren SP-Chevrolet, after seven years in Michael Andretti’s squad. He admitted that winning for the team with whom he scored a remarkable Indy 500 win in 2016 as a rookie was emotionally significant. Rossi spoke gIowingly of the team he’s about to leave, saying that he had not spotted a drop in their dedication to him since he told them of his departure.
