Alexander Rossi says his interest in the United States has skyrocketed and is very hopeful for his 2016 prospects.
Speaking to crash.net, the American said: “Me being in a race seat has kind of changed where I stand in American motorsports and where I stand in this paddock and everything.”
Rossi started racing with Manor in only Singapore but has out-finished his more experienced team-mate Will Stevens on all four occasions.
“So my stock value over the past month and a half has definitely gone through the roof and the interest in the States has skyrocketed as well, so with all those things and having a positive Austin when we had a lot of guests and potential sponsors there, it was a great thing to have happen.”
Rossi, 24, equalled Manor’s best 2015 finish with 12th place at his home race.
“Things are looking very positive for next year and we just have to keep going now and do the best we can.”
