Alex Lloyd hopes his daughter arrives late
Being an Indy race car driver means that May 24 - the day of the Indy 500 - is a very important day. But for expectant dad Indy race car driver Alex Lloyd, it is also the due date of his daughter! Though we have yet to hear if his second child with wife Samantha did indeed arrive, it was certainly on Alex’s mind.
When the doctor told them their daughter’s due date, Alex thought, “It’s just typical!”
His plan for race day? “I’m just going to drive faster and when I get the checkered flag, then they can tell me if something has happened. If they tell me, I’m just going to tell them to open the gates and let me go because I can get there in this car a lot faster than I can in another car.”
We hope it didn’t come to that!
