Jesse Metcalfe wears his racing uniform during a fun experience at the IndyCar race on Sunday afternoon (March 24) in Austin, Tex.

The 40-year-old actor led the field to the green flag in a two-seat Indy car driven by NTT IndyCar Series driver and Dancing with the Stars champion Helio Castroneves.

This marked Castroneves’ first time driving the two-seat Indy car to start a race and IndyCar’s inaugural race at Circuit of the Americas.

“What an absolutely awesome day with @honda at the #INDYCARClassic!!! Thanks for the seat!” Jesse wrote on Instagram.
