The busiest weekend in motorsports is fast approaching, with the 107th Indianapolis 500, the Monaco Grand Prix and the Coca-Cola 600 all taking place this Sunday. But the Indy 500, AKA the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing,” is shaping up to be the biggest well spectacle of them all. After a shocking last-minute shakeup in the Indy 500 qualifiers that left Jack Harvey in the lineup and Graham Rahal out, a collision during Monday’s practice race took Stefan Wilson out of the running with a fractured vertebrae, bringing Rahal back into the mix after all. Ready to see how this all shakes out on the track? Start your engines and buckle up, here’s how to tune into the official Indy 500 race and pit stop competition Brickyard this weekend.
