Just curious as to whether any drivers spend time together off the race course?

 

For example I know Alesi and Berger seemed pretty close but did they get together off the track?

Scott Dixon, Dan Wheldon, and Dario Franchitti all apparently had loads of fun together.

The Indycar drivers are just a different breed. Often enough they post pictures of a couple of them going out for dinner.

But Wickens and Hinchcliffe are really close and Marco Andretti was afaik the only other driver to be invited to Wickens' wedding. So they seem to be on good terms as well.

It seems that drivers experiences - some very bad, brought them together back then. Always loved these pics. Just do not see it too often these days.
