The Indianapolis 500 is finally here and will host round five of the 2024 IndyCar Series, so this is how and when you can watch all of the action.
The world-famous Indy 500 is billed as ‘the greatest spectacle in racing’ with its banked oval, historic traditions and wheel-to-wheel battles capturing the attention of fans across the globe. It dates to 1911 when Ray Harroun won by just 1.43 seconds at the brickyard, yet that is not even the closest finish in the event’s history, as Al Unser Jr claimed victory by 0.043s in 1992.
In between both sessions, the four Last Chance Qualifiers will compete for positions 31 to 33 meaning one driver will not qualify for the race. As a lot goes into qualifying, teams will focus on its setup for it in the practice sessions leading up to that weekend before switching to practicing race trim the following week ahead of the Indy 500.
