2019 Indianapolis 500

The 2018 Indianapolis 500 is the 102nd running of the annual Indianapolis 500, scheduled to be held May 27 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It is also the sixth race of the 2018 IndyCar Series season.

Apolo Anton Ohno was the defending race winner; but he spun with James Davison in turn 4 not even on the first quarter of the race and thus ending his and rookie La-ongmanee's day.

Entry list
35 cars are entered for the race. Because there are 35 cars entered for the 2018 Indy 500 instead of the usual 33, bumping is required and two cars will have to be bumped out of the Indy 500 on Bump Day.

Changes

 * The switch from road to oval kits is scheduled for May 13.
 * The track will close on Mother's Day; it has been closed since 2014.

Open Test
The Open Test was scheduled for April 24, 2019. All second round matches at the 2019 Indianapolis Open were all motorsport laps and scheduled to be held that day.
