Indy 500 Preview
The Indy 500 is back and there will be lots of fans on hand at Indianapolis Motor Speedway to take in the event, which ran without a crowd on hand for the first time a year ago amid the pandemic.
“These are all steps in the right direction, steps toward opening up not just this place, but America,” said Roger Penske, who owns and operates the race track. “It’s all about returning to what feels normal, what makes you feel like your life is back where you want it to be. For me, that’s returning to a full crowd enjoying all the events that make the Indianapolis 500 such an important part of so many people’s lives, and that’s not just the race — that’s every piece of the experience for every fan.”
Scott Dixon is the favorite for the race as the pole sitter, looking for his first victory at the event since 2008.
“It’s the biggest race in the world and the most difficult race in the world. I feel very lucky and privileged to have won it once but that also drives you into a deeper will to want to win it again,” Dixon said. “Would I trade some championships for 500 wins? Maybe. I don’t know. I feel like there’s a lot of emphasis on IndyCar championships but the Indy 500 is the Indy 500.”
