Marco Andretti 'shoved into wall' on Lap 4 crash during Indy 500. Will he run next year?
INDIANAPOLIS — A multi-car collision resulted in Marco Andretti's 2025 Indianapolis 500 ending in the first turn. Andretti was on the outside of Dreyer and Reinbold Racing teammates Ryan Hunter-Reay and Jack Harvey when Hunter-Reay moved the No. 23 Chevrolet to the right. Harvey was alongside Hunter-Reay and moved in reaction to his teammate, colliding with Andretti. Advertisement 'I'm fine, just bummed. I wait all year for this and to have it end that early is as frustrating that it gets. If I had a crystal ball, I just would've waited, but it's not really in my nature to do that,' Andretti said. 'I had a really good start going and just got crowded at the top. I couldn't move up anymore and got shoved into the wall.' The No. 98 Honda spun and hit the wall with the left side of the car before it slid to a stop near the outside wall in Turn 1. Andretti climbed out of the car under his own power. The 20-year-veteran addressed whether the crash would motivate him to run in the 110th Indianapolis 500. 'It would suck to go out like that, wouldn't it?,' Andretti said.

The Indy 500 takes place at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indianapolis, Indiana. Who won the 2024 Indy 500? Josef Newgarden won the 2024 Indy 500, his second consecutive win after winning the 2023 edition. He's the sixth back-to-back champion, and he's attempting to become the first ever racer to win three consecutive Indy 500s. What is the milk tradition? One of the most unique traditions for winners happens at the Indianapolis 500 when the winner drinks a bottle of milk. There's somewhat of a debate about when the tradition began. In 1933, after winning his second race, Louis Meyer said he drank milk, although there's no evidence of it. But in 1936, after winning the race an unprecedented third time, he held up three fingers in the air with his right hand while his other hand held a bottle of buttermilk. He drank it and the moment was filmed. According to Indianapolis Motor Speedway, a dairy industry executive saw the footage of Meyer drinking the milk and jumped at the opportunity to offer milk to Indy 500 winners. The winners from 1938-41 drank milk, and after the race returned from hiatus in 1946 due to World War II, milk was given to the winner. It took some payment to get the early winners to drink the milk, as 1956 winner Pat Flaherty was given $400 to drink it. But now it's become a sacred tradition for winners, as they'll drink the milk and often pour the rest of it on their heads in celebration. Before the race, all drivers submit to the Dairy Association what type of milk they'd want if they win. Drivers choose from fat-free, 2% or whole milk, or no preference.

3 big predictions for the 2025 Indianapolis 500 qualifying sessions
3 big predictions for the 2025 Indianapolis 500 qualifying sessions The best qualifying format in all of racing will begin on Saturday morning. The NTT IndyCar Series will start its grueling qualifying sessions for the 2025 Indianapolis 500 to determine the pole position and which driver will miss the big event on Sunday, May 25. Below, we dive into three big predictions for the 2025 Indianapolis 500 qualifying sessions. Who will win the pole? Who will go home? And, where will Kyle Larson qualify in his second attempt at "The Double?" Robert Shwartzman misses the 2025 Indianapolis 500 Robert Shwartzman will be the lone driver to miss the 2025 Indianapolis 500. Through three practice sessions, Shwartzman and PREMA Racing teammate Callum Ilott haven't shown much top-end speed. One of Graham Rahal and Santino Ferrucci could be the shocking driver not to make the field, but Shwartzman's inexperience will be the deciding factor. Kyle Larson makes the Firestone Fast 6 for a second straight year Kyle Larson will make the Firestone Fast 6 for a second straight year. If this prediction comes true, Larson would likely leave the final Indianapolis 500 qualifying session for the NASCAR All-Star Race at North Wilkesboro Speedway, placing himself in sixth place for race day. The Firestone Fast 6 is one hour later than 2024, putting the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series champion in a tough spot to go for the pole position. Josef Newgarden wins the pole for the 2025 Indianapolis 500 Josef Newgarden will win the pole for the 2025 Indianapolis 500 on Sunday afternoon. Newgarden has won two straight Indy 500s, but hasn't claimed the elusive pole position. The driver of the No. 2 car has shown exceptional speed through the first three practice sessions, and it wouldn't be shocking to see him leading the field to the green flag on Sunday, May 25.
