New dad Castroneves' advice to baby: Be a lawyer
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -Three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves has only been a father for two weeks, but he already has career advice for his daughter.
Castroneves says he won't encourage Mikaella to drive a race car. He says she should be a golfer or an attorney instead.
The Brazilian driver alluded to last year's acquittal on tax-evasion charges by quipping that “you always need an attorney.”
Castroneves was at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Tuesday for a ceremony to unveil his likeness on the Borg-Warner trophy that commemorates his 2009 victory.
The first foreigner to win Indy three times says he is looking forward to competing for a fourth victory this season. Mikaella and girlfriend Adriana Henao will travel with him to cheer him on.
