Rahal is currently preparing for his debut in the iconic Indy 500 this weekend, as he aims to tame the legendary Brickyard in much the same manner as his father did back in 1986. Success at Indy has previously paved the way for such as Jacques Villeneuve and Juan-Pablo Montoya to make the move over to Europe, but despite having espoused the attraction of grand prix racing in the past, the former Champ Car Atlantic vice-champion seems somewhat less keen now.

“Maybe it's just me,” he reflected when speaking to the Indianapolis Star. “I have to be careful saying this, but I don't find Formula 1 interesting.

“[If] you go over there with a top team, that would be really cool, but if you don't, I find nothing cool about running for 15th every weekend.”
