The Indianapolis 500 Race, also known as the Indianapolis 500, the Indy 500, is an American automobile race, held annually over the Memorial Day weekend at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Speedway, Indiana. The event lends its name to the IndyCar class, or formula, of open-wheel race cars that have competed in it.
The event, billed as The Greatest Spectacle in Racing, is considered one of the three most significant motorsports events in the world. The 94th running of the race is scheduled this Sunday afternoon May 30, 2010.
Defending champion Helio Castroneves is starting from the pole for the second straight time. Since the pole winner has won three of the last four Indy 500’s, the 35-year-old Brazilian is a good bet to tie a record four career victories.
The Indianapolis 500 race starts at 1:00 pm ET.
