Default 101st Running of the Indianapolis 500 - May 28th

May 28th at 11 AM EST on ABC
The Official Site of IndyCar News, Drivers, Schedule & Shop | IndyCar.com

Here are the results of the fast nine qualifying:

Row 1: Scott Dixon, Ed Carpenter, Alexander Rossi
Row 2: Takuma Sato, Fernando Alonso, JR Hildebrand
Row 3: Tony Kanaan, Marco Andretti, Will Power.

My choices for the win are Rossi and Alonso. But the speedway is a cruel mistress. May the best driver win and I'm looking forward to watching this more so than the Monaco Grand prix.

Congrats to Scott Dixon. Fastest Indy pole time in 21 years, since Arie Lyendyk in 96, back when they were running 1,000 hp.

Terrific race and great to see Honda in victory lane again.

Congrats to Sato and the Andretti team. Good drives by Alonso and Rossi as well as Helio.

Congrats to Sato! Terrible Dixon crash. I'm so glad he was able to walk away.
