Against all the odds, the 104th Indy 500 will go ahead under lockdown restrictions this weekend, several months after the race should have been held.
Approximately 300,000 fans usually roll into the iconic Indianapolis Motor Speedway circuit for the big race every year, but none will be permitted this time around.
A fresh slate of superstars are ready to duel through 200 laps of the circuit, including defending champion Simon Pagenaud who will harbour hopes of retaining his crown, but faces stiff competition.
Formula 1 legend Fernando Alonso is involved in the race once again, and it may be his final outing in Indy as he prepares for a shock return to F1 in 2021.
The Spanish star qualified 26th for the Indy 500, while Marco Andretti secured pole position ahead of the big showdown.
