With Jamie McMurray’s surprising Daytona 500 victory (we’re sure it was inspired by our piece on him last week…jk) behind us, the next big automobile race on the American landscape is the 94th Indianapolis 500 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on May 30th. Last year’s race was one of the most exciting Indy 500’s in recent memory with Danica Patrick finishing a career best third place behind runner up Dan Wheldon and winner Helio Castroneves. The Brazilian driver won his third Indianapolis 500 by 8 car lengths with Patrick and Wheldon on his tail. Scotsman Dario Franchitti won the Indy Series last year for the second time and will be looking to win his second Indianapolis 500 this year. The cast of characters and sure unpredictability of the race will make for another great edition of the legendary IndyCar event this year. Fans who are lucky enough to obtain Indianapolis 500 tickets will experience a racing event unlike any other on the planet.
