Indianapolis 500


Sunday May 27
Race 5 of 17


"The Greatest Spectacle in Racing" is one of the oldest and richest motorsport events in existence, having the largest attendance and one of the largest radio and television audiences of any single-day sporting event worldwide.

While the official attendance is not disclosed by Speedway management, news media estimate attendance in excess of 270,000.

The event lends its name to the "IndyCar" class of formula, or open-wheel, race cars that have competed in it.

It has been broadcast live over radio on the IMS Radio Network since 1952, televised live in 1949 and 1950 on local station WFBM-TV (now WRTV), and not again until ABC Sports was permitted to broadcast the race via tape delay from 1965 to 1985, and then with live flag-to-flag coverage beginning in 1986.



In May 2007, the race will celebrate its 91st running and 62nd consecutive year of uninterrupted occurrence.
