Felix Rosenqvist - the Swedish champion of the Indy 500

The legendary Indianapolis 500 is held annually at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indiana. With 350,000 to 400,000 people in the audience, it's the largest single-day sporting event in the world - turning the arena into the second-largest city in Indiana during the event.

It's one day, 200 laps, 500 miles - and Felix Rosenqvist from Värnamo in Sweden is the reigning champion, winning the 3-hour race with a 0,0233-second margin.

I steered this road trip to his home in Indianapolis to talk about the victory and to learn what led him to this place.

- What does it take to be the fastest man when it matters the most, and where do you go when you're at the top?
