Spotter Guide CAN DIXON GO FROM THE POLE TO VICTORY LANE For the third time in his career, Scott Dixon scored the pole for Indianapolis 500, the fastest polesitter for the race since 1996. History will be on his side this weekend as the Indy 500 pole has gone on to win the race 20 times, including when he won the race in 2008. Can Dixon covert his Verizon P1 Award into the Borg-Warner Trophy? Shawn Gritzmacher/INDYCAR PHOTO WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEKEND: IT’S NOT WHERE YOU START…: The last five Indianapolis 500 winners have started outside the top 10, including Alexander Rossi, who came from 11th to win last year. With depth throughout the 33-car field for the 101st Indy 500, including former winners Juan Pablo Montoya and Helio Castroneves starting from the sixth row or further back, can another star drive through the field to win the race? SECOND-GENERATION STARS HOPE TO ADD TO FAMILY LEGACY: The latest generation from two of open- wheel racing’s most familiar families comes to Indianapolis in hopes of adding to the family legacy. Marco Andretti—the grandson of 1969 winner Mario Andretti and son of Michael Andretti—has finished in the top three at Indy three times in his 10 previous starts. He hopes to give his father’s team its fifth Indianapolis 500 win. Another son hoping to return his father’s team to Victory Lane is Graham Rahal. The son of former Indy winner Bobby Rahal aims to win for Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing, which won the Indy 500 in 2004. FORMER CHAMPIONS RETURN IN SEARCH OF SECOND WIN: Five former Indianapolis 500 winners return with eyes on adding a second Baby Borg to their collection. 2008 winner Scott Dixon and 2013 winner Tony Kanaan return with the formidable Chip Ganassi Racing team. Ryan Hunter-Reay and reigning champion Alexander Rossi will aim to bring Andretti Autosport another win in the Indy 500 and Buddy Lazier returns with Lazier-Burns Racing 20 years after claiming his Indy 500 win. Can a former winner score a second Indianapolis win? DIVERSE ROOKIE CLASS HOPES TO MAKE STRONG FIRST IMPRESSION: The rookie class features a two- time Formula One champion, the reigning Indy Lights champion, one of two drivers to win races on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s road course and oval and a driver who has competed in all three levels of the Mazda Road to Indy. The 2017 rookies are: Fernando Alonso, Jack Harvey, Ed Jones and Zach Veach. PENSKE SEEKS HISTORY: Team owner Roger Penske has won the Indianapolis 500 a record 16 times and brings five strong entries in 2017 with three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves, two- time Indianapolis 500 winner Juan Pablo Montoya, series points leader Simon Pagenaud, former Verizon IndyCar Series champion Will Power and rising star Josef Newgarden. Can the fearsome fivesome become the first team to lock out the podium and complete the Captain’s sweep? POWER TRIES FOR INDIANAPOLIS SWEEP: After winning the INDYCAR Grand Prix for the second time in his career on May 13, Will Power of Team Penske aims to make history at Indianapolis. Power could become the first Verizon IndyCar Series driver to win on both the IMS Road Course and Oval. Can Power complete a history-making Month of May? LED DISPLAY PANELS: POSITION: RED PIT STOP TIMER: GREEN Primary display, showing the car’s position Display shows a running clock in the running order. Blinks when the during a pit stop in seconds. position has changed from previous lap. Example: 7.9-second pit stop. Example: Car is running in P12. Firestone will celebrate its 68th Indy 500 win this year – that is more than double all other tire manufacturers combined. A ROSSI REPEAT - With a win in his fi rst Indy 500 start, Alexander Rossi hopes to remain undefeated at Indianapolis. Helio Castroneves was the last driver to repeat as Indianapolis 500 winner in 2001-2002 and he was also the last driver to win his fi rst two 500 starts. Can he repeat the feat?

  • The Indy Racing League and the Indianapolis 500
    The Indy Racing League and the Indianapolis 500: Increasing Competition in Open-Wheeled Automobile Racing in the United States Robert W. White Department of Sociology and Andrew J. Baker Department of Geography School of Liberal Arts IUPUI We thank Terri Talbert-Hatch and Pete Hylton for their comments and support of Motorsports Studies. Please direct correspondence to Robert White ([email protected]), Professor of Sociology and Director of Motorsports Studies, or Andrew Baker ([email protected]), Lecturer, Department of Geography, School of Liberal Arts, Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI), 425 University Boulevard, Indianapolis, Indiana, 46202. 1 The Indy Racing League and the Indianapolis 500: Increasing Competition in Open-Wheeled Automobile Racing in the United States Abstract Over the course of its lengthy history, the popularity of open-wheeled automobile racing in the United States has waxed and waned. This is especially evident in recent years. The 1996 “split” between the Indy Racing League (IRL; later, the IndyCar Series) and Championship Auto Racing Teams (CART; later the Champ Car World Series) severely hurt the sport. Following the split there was a well-documented decline in fan interest from which the sport has not recovered. Less understood, however, is that under the Indy Racing League the Indianapolis 500, the premier event in open-wheeled racing in the United States, became more competitive. Ironically, while fan interest decreased in the Indy Racing League era, the quality of racing increased. The increased competition associated with the Indy Racing League is a historically significant development that bodes well for the future of the sport.
