2025 109th Running of the Indianapolis 500

[Jorge De Guzman]

That stinks. Oh well. It’s still bad ass to see him run this race, I low key wish he’d run more in IndyCar. I’d love to see him run Iowa or Milwaukee

 

[Kiante]

He'll make it in time now.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Big hit for Sting Ray, damn. Tire barriers were all waterlogged.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Satos crew member on a stretcher? Omg

One from Shwatzman's team.
Hopefully that foot wasn't broken.

 

[Bretzky]

Rookie downshift

 

[nickp]

Kyle Larson will have no problem getting to Charlotte in time for the Coca-Cola 600

 

[StandOnIt]

Cold weather and a moist track isn't making it easy.

 

[Hawaii808]

Watching the camera in Larson’s car…he’s keeping pace in 4th gear, downshifts to 3rd and loses it. Don’t understand why the downshift there. Oh well, a calm trip to Charlotte. Retire the 17 gear, suit up the 5.

Those steering wheels are very crowded. Could he have downshifted in error?

 

[REBS31]

I feel like I’ve been watching this race for six hours and it just hit halfway lol

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I spy more rain drops on the camera

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Doesn’t Larson have an option to do this next year, I thought it was a 3 year deal

 

[rd45usa]

Would not be surprised to see pit road speed changed for next year.

 

[donthaveanickname]

This is gonna be the first one in a while that's gonna take more than 3 hours to finish.
At this rate, WAY more than three hours.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Tom Rinaldi is an absolute buzzkill. Hot take.

 

[Blaze]

I remember that 2021 Indy 500. Woke up that morning and predicted the Castroneves win. Wish I had the money to put on it lol.

 

[rd45usa]

Hopefully this Indycar experiment is over for Kyle for good.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Unfortunately you're right, that's why this caution is taking that long.

 

[Tim_Richmond_Fan]

Tom Rinaldi is an absolute buzzkill. Hot take.

I hope it raises awareness and money for the cause, but I can't watch things about sick kids. Just can't do it.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

More restart craziness. Caution's back out.

 

[Speedbowl14]

The leader keeps stacking them up more and more...

 

[DanicaFreak]

Gotta be the weather doing this weirdness

 

[AdoubleU24]

Sting Ray Robb is the greatest name in sports history. The fact he isn't Australian or something tho feels a little wrong

 

[DanicaFreak]

More restart craziness. Caution's back out.

42 caution laps 60 some green flag

 

[donthaveanickname]

Will was yelling for ten seconds when the yellow was already out.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Insane save by Rasmussen, holy.

 

[nickp]

Another crash when they go back to green!

 

[FLRacingFan]

The leader keeps stacking them up more and more...

Got a guy up there who isn’t used to leading and controlling the field, it’s sketchy.

 

[REBS31]

The Indy 500 is about 90% of my yearly Indy consumption. That being said, who are the Cup equivalents of DeFrancesco and Harvey? I get the impression they’re underdogs and the alternate strategy is intriguing.

 

[Speedbowl14]

A great chance for many underdogs to win this one.

 

[Spotter22]

Indy looking like an ARCA race so far. Sheesh

 

[DanicaFreak]

Go carpenter!

 

[donthaveanickname]

Both Foyt cars in the Top 5.

 

[nickp]

Imagine being Alex Palou today

 

[Tim_Richmond_Fan]

Hell yeah Conor.

 

[gnomesayin]

Glad they actually survived another round of restart craziness and have a real stint going here.

I’m struggling to think of comparisons but they would definitely both be big upsets. DeFrancesco never even won a NXT (Xfinity) race, spent an unspectacular two years with Andretti before finding himself out of a ride last year and returning full-time this year with Rahal. Harvey had a pretty promising career going before he got concussed at Texas a few years ago, and his career petered out from there. He’s a pit reporter with FOX now and does the 500 as a one-off with a one-off team.

 

[FLRacingFan]

With all the shock and awe about Shwartzman, Ilott has really flown under the radar and quietly has the other Prema in really good position right now.

 

[gnomesayin]

I feel like Helio is still going to be doing this at 60.

That really makes me want Harvey to win!
