2015 Indianapolis 500
The 99th Indianapolis 500 is scheduled for Sunday May 24, 2015, at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It will be the premier event of the 2015 season of the Verizon IndyCar Series. Ryan Hunter-Reay will enter the race as the defending champion. Scott Dixon won the pole position, his second career Indy pole. Three-time Indy winner Hélio Castroneves will once again attempt to win a record-tying fourth 500.
For the second year in a row, the month of May activities opened with the Grand Prix of Indianapolis over May 7–9. Practice opened on May 11, and time trials were held over two days, May 16–17.
The 2015 race will see the debut of unique aero kits from Chevrolet and Honda, respectively, outfitted for the Dallara DW12 chassis.[3] As part of the ICONIC project, aero kits were originally planned for 2012, but a series of delays due to cost issues put off their homologation
and implementation until 2015. During practice, three Chevrolet entries
suffered major crashes that resulted in flip-overs. The crashes raised
safety concerns around the paddock, and series officials delayed time
trials for several hours in order to address the situation with rule and
procedural changes.
