At some point, we have to stop calling Alex Palou the next great IndyCar driver and start asking a much bigger question: Is he already on his way to being the greatest ever?
Palou just captured his fifth IndyCar championship, his fourth consecutive **** le, putting him firmly among the sport's all-time elite. Only A.J. Foyt's seven championships and Scott Dixon's six now stand ahead of him.
And he's only 29.
That's the scary part.
Palou didn't go back-to-back at the Indianapolis 500 this year, but he did something almost as impressive: He put the No. 10 Chip Ganassi Racing Honda on the pole for the second time in his career, becoming the first reigning 500 winner to take the pole since 2010.
