The 104th Indianapolis 500 will mark the primary time the best Spectacle in Racing is going to be held outside of May, and “When is that the Indy 500?” is one among many questions on Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s signature race.
The green flag will drop on the 2020 Indy 500 at 2:30 PM ET (coverage begins at 1 PM on NBC) today, nearly 3 months after its originally scheduled date.

How to watch the Indy 500 race?
The Indy 500 will be shown on NBC
But one schedule element that is still unchanged: the 2 weeks leading up to the race still will feature the regular cadence of practices, two days of qualifying, and Carb Day’s final practice.
Fernando Alonso believes that he can get himself within the mix for Indy 500 victory from 26th on the grid on Sunday because the F1 champion makes his final plan to complete the Triple Crown for at least 3 years.
The former F1 champion is within the starting field for the famous 500-mile Brickyard race for the second time, three years after his only race-day appearance thus far when he led for 27 laps before throwing in the towel with a breakdown.
He is getting to become just the second driver after Graham Hill to win the three races considered the foremost prestigious in motorsport - the Monaco GP (which Alonso won in 2006-07), Le Mans 24 Hours (2018-19) and Indy 500.
