Indy 500 2023 – preview
The Greatest Spectacle in Racing is one heck of a slogan to live up to, but the 2023 Indy 500 has been given a worthy buildup, with Alex Palou, Rinus VeeKay and Felix Rosenqvist forming the fastest front row in the history of this 112-year-old event.
Just 0.006mph separated Chip Ganassi Racing's Palou from Ed Carpenter Racing's VeeKay, while all three drivers on the front row beat the previous pole speed record – set by Scott Dixon a year ago.
The reigning champion, Marcus Ericsson, was only quick enough for the 10th slot on the grid, back in the fourth row. It's certainly not an ideal starting position, though he took victory from eighth a year ago, and has at least got the inside line this time around.
The drivers occupying the four places immediately in front of him are also fellow former Indy 500 winners, with Dixon in ninth, followed by Alexander Rossi, Takuma Sato and Tony Kanaan. In the 11th slot is 24-year-old Dane Benjamin Pedersen, the highest-placed rookie, while Katherine Legge, the only woman to qualify, starts in 30th.
The milk is on ice, but who will be the cream of the crop? Here's how to watch a 2023 Indy 500 live stream no matter where you are.
