Indy 500 weather forecast: Latest updates for Sunday's race
It's Memorial Day weekend, which is annually one of the most important of the year for motorsports fans. Sunday's schedule will kick off with the Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix, leading into the 2025 Indianapolis 500 and concluding with NASCAR's Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte.

'I'm gonna have to pee in this thing': Conor Daly admits to urinating in his Indy 500 car
Nature delayed the start of the Indianapolis 500. It also called Conor Daly. The eighth-place finisher in Sunday's race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway revealed Monday night that he had to go as he sat in his car awaiting the start. Advertisement "Never in my life have a I urinated in my car until Sunday. I was sitting on the grid, and I was like, 'This is the best car I've ever had in my whole life. … I'm gonna have to pee in this thing.' I kid you not," he said at the victory celebration. A brief rain shower delayed the Indy 500's start by about 45 minutes. Daly led 13 laps (120-133), but issues with his right rear tire forced him to pit earlier than he wanted, costing him a chance to compete for the win. "I had to go really bad," Daly said. "I don't if it was the diabetes or I'm just getting really old. Helio (Castroneves) should know. He's halfway to 100. I don't know if that happens to him a lot. "I literally did the whole race sitting in my pee." Advertisement From 2018: James Hinchcliffe: 'You're talking to a man who just wet himself.' The 33-year-old Hoosier crossed the finish line 10th but moved up two spots after Marcus Ericsson and Kyle Kirkwood were penalized after their cars failed post-race tech inspection.
