“I don't want to go out there and do something that 3,000 other people can do.” — @MarioAndretti #INDYCAR #INDY500

This will be the first Indy 500 since 1957 without an Andretti, Foyt, or Unser in the field. Coincidentally, it will be the first one in history with a Schumacher behind the wheel. #INDYCAR #INDY500

Jack Harvey's No. 24 just caught on fire on the backstretch. He got into pit lane and out of the car safely as we go yellow.

“To me the track was the last great speed shrine, which must be preserved at all cost. I felt that all l was, or ever hope to be, I owed to the Indianapolis 500-mile race.” — Wilbur Shaw #INDYCAR #INDY500

Good omen for @smclaughlin93 — the only Knicks fan in the world that I actually like. The Indianapolis 500 has only taken place on May 24 six times, not counting this year. ▪️Half of them were won by the No. 3 car. ▪️Four of the six were won by Team Penske. #INDYCAR #INDY500

I say it every year, but @ArrowMcLaren knows how to do liveries, even for a test! Wonder if they were going for an animal theme… 🦓 @PatricioOWard 🐬 @nolan_siegel 🦒 @lundgaardoff 🦄 @RyanHunterReay #INDYCAR #INDY500

New colors look so good… 🎨 #INDYCAR #INDY500

Alex Palou becomes the 14th person in motorsports history to have won both the Indianapolis 500 and Grand Prix of Long Beach. Only two drivers (Unser Jr 1994, Castroneves 2001) have ever won both races in the same season. Palou could join them next month, as a back-to-back Indy 500 winner. #IndyCar #GPLongBeach #AGPLB

Scott Dixon's last pole outside of Indianapolis came in 2016 at Watkins Glen. Since then, he's made the Firestone Fast Six 46 times without earning pole (13 front row starts). #IndyCar #GPLongBeach @IndyCarOnFOX

Three Key Stats: @GPLongBeach 🔑 Palou: finished top-five in all five starts but has never won here or qualified on pole. His 3.4 average finish is the best in Long Beach history (minimum three starts). 🔑 Power: Leads all active drivers in wins (2), poles (3), podiums (7), laps led (187), top-fives (8), and has not finished outside top ten since 2017. 🔑 McLaughlin and O'Ward combined: 11 starts, 3 top-tens, 1 top-five, 0 wins, 0 laps led, 14.2 average finishing position. #GPLongBeach #IndyCar

For the first time since the Apollo 17 mission in 1972, humans have left Earth’s orbit. A piece of fabric from the Wright Brothers’ first powered flight in 1903 is also on board. God speed to the crew; none of whom were even alive when the last Moon landing happened. ▪️Victor Glover ▪️Jeremy Hansen ▪️Christina Koch ▪️Reid Wiseman #Artemis11 @NASA 🚀

Productive work week out west. I have no idea how people in Los Angeles deal with that traffic every single day.

Three Key Stats: @BarberMotorPark 🔑 Palou: finished 1st, 2nd, 5th, 5th, and 1st in five starts. He won from pole last year and has led 153 laps. His 2.8 average finish here is second only to his 1.6 average at Laguna Seca. 🔑 Power: started on front row nine times, has two wins, 12 top-fives, and 216 laps led. 🔑 Dixon: nine podium finishes at Barber but has never won. He has made Firestone Fast Six 12 times here but has never started on the front row. Dixon is also the only driver to complete every lap in all 15 races. #INDYCAR #INDYBHM

My favorite part is the role Kay Bignotti played. Tony Hulman wasn't planning to change the "Gentlemen, start your engines" command because the mechanics actually start the engines. Kay was the daughter of three-time winner Louis Meyer, wife of legendary George Bignotti, and had a USAC mechanic's license. She told Janet, "We can't let them get away with this." and started her car on race day. #WomensHistoryMonth #Indy500 #IndyCar
