Simon Pagenaud won the Indianapolis 500 on Sunday and celebrated with the traditional bottle of milk. Only he didn’t drink any of the beverage but rather chose to give himself a full-on dairy shower.
Take a look at the milk bath he gave himself after winning the race:

It didn’t look like he got any of it in his mouth, but when you’ve just won a lengthy race, you can do whatever you want.
He also took part in the other tradition by kissing the bricks at the speedway upon winning:

This was Pagenaud’s first Indy 500 win and it came in the 103rd running of the race. The Team Penske driver became the first French driver since 1920 to win the race.
