Rinus Veekay, also known as Rinus van Kalmthout in the Netherlands, thoroughly enjoys everything he can take in. He will probably have enjoyed his own IndyCar race in Indianapolis less, but he enjoyed everything around it.

Because during the IndyCar weekend, NASCAR was also present at Indy. And Veekay decided to enjoy it. In an interview with NBC, he said it's great to be so close to NASCAR. "It's crazy. It's noisy. I love it.

For now, Veekay himself will remain active in IndyCar, but despite that, he appears to be a jack of all trades.
