The Indianapolis 500, one of the most important motorsports events in history, celebrates its 109th running this Sunday, May 25, at the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indiana, USA. In this article, I explain what you need to know to watch the race on the famous Indianapolis Oval, which promises to be the best on the 2025 IndyCar Series calendar.
Shwartzmann, 25, is only the second rookie since 1951 to claim the Indianapolis 500 pole position, after reaching an average speed of 373.79 km/h (233.16 mph) in a Fast-6 race in which Mexican Pato O’Ward (Arrow McLaren) finished third and Spaniard Alex Palou (Chip Ganassi) had to settle for sixth.
“I can’t believe it. I closed my eyes and said, ‘This is a dream, it can’t be true.’ The car was fantastic. Coming here for the first time, I never imagined it would be, it’s incredible. Thanks to the fans who cheered me on,” said the Israeli after learning of his pole position.
He will start from pole position, ahead of Japan’s Takuma Sato (Rahal) and O’Ward, who returns to Indianapolis after a near-glorious finish to last year’s edition.
Palou, who had been the fastest on Saturday, had to settle for sixth place after an average speed of 371.417 km/h.
The Spaniard, a three-time IndyCar champion, has dominated the season so far, winning four of the five races. He is looking for what would be his first Indy500 victory.
It's time for the 109th Running of the Indianapolis 500! This weekend will be the busiest of the year for motorsports fans with the Indy 500, Monaco Grand Prix and Coca-Cola 600 all racing on the same day. | Photo by indianapolismotorspeedway.com
