Felix Rosenqvist becomes Borg-Warner Trophy's first bearded face

Felix Rosenqvist, the 2026 Indy 500 champion, revealed his sculpture on the Borg-Warner Trophy in Tryon, North Carolina. He made a dramatic last-lap pass to secure his victory over David Malukas by a record 0.0233 seconds. This milestone makes Rosenqvist the first driver depicted with a beard on the trophy, a distinction he embraces. Following a hectic year, he looks forward to a public celebration in his hometown of Värnamo, Sweden, scheduled for December 5. Rosenqvist will also prepare for the next IndyCar season with Arrow McLaren.
