The two-time Formula One champion says he’s on a personal “Indy 500 adventure” that is a labor of both love and ambition. The McLaren driver will attempt to run the Indianapolis 500 next month for Andretti Autosport, and dropped by Birmingham, Ala., to meet with the Andretti team, including owner and former McLaren driver Michael Andretti (above left), and watch Sunday’s IndyCar race. “I want to be the most complete driver in the world and the best driver in the world and I want to win all the series in different cars with different driving techniques,” Alonso said. Wearing safety goggles and glancing at his watch, the former baseball player is following in his late father’s footsteps once again — this time as a brewmaster.
