Expert Predictions for the Indy 500

If you want an edge in the FOX Super 6, expert predictions can help. Here are some key takes to consider before you lock in your picks for the Indy 500.

Prediction 1: Larson Completes the “Double Duty”

One big question is whether Kyle Larson will pull off the “Double Duty”—racing both the Indy 500 and the Coca-Cola 600 on the same day. Only two drivers have ever finished both events in the same day.

Alex Palou has a strong car and should be in the mix, but Larson’s chances of finishing both races look good.

Prediction 2: Best Finishing Position Ranking

Another question asks you to rank these drivers by their best finishing position at the Indy 500: Felix Rosenqvist, Scott Dixon, Robert Shwartzman, and Scott McLaughlin.

Shwartzman starts on pole, but with little oval experience, he’s a real wildcard. Based on recent results and history, here’s how it shakes out:

  • Scott McLaughlin
  • Scott Dixon
  • Felix Rosenqvist
  • Robert Shwartzman

Prediction 3: Group of Drivers Including the Indy 500 Winner

You’ll also need to pick which group of drivers will include the Indy 500 winner. The options:

  • Group 1: O’Ward, Shwartzman, Newgarden, Rossi
  • Group 2: Palou, Sato, Rosenqvist, Malukas
  • Group 3: Dixon, McLaughlin, Larson, Lundgaard
  • Group 4: None of the above

O’Ward and Newgarden have looked strong, and with Shwartzman on pole, Group 1 seems like a solid bet.

Prediction 4: Starting Grid Position of the Indy 500 Winner

Predicting where the winner starts on the grid is always tricky. Fast cars are scattered throughout the field, but O’Ward and Dixon both start in the top four.

Prediction: Positions 1-4

Prediction 5: Pato O’Ward’s Performance

Pato O’Ward has finished second twice in the last three years. With his best-ever starting spot in third, maybe this is finally his year.

Prediction: Win

Prediction 6: Team with Best Combined Finishing Position

The last question: Which team will have the two drivers with the best combined finish? The choices:

  • Arrow McLaren: O’Ward, Lundgaard, Larson, Siegel
  • Chip Ganassi Racing: Dixon, Palou, Simpson

Both teams have strong lineups, but Chip Ganassi Racing’s veterans, Dixon and Palou, might just give them the edge.

Prediction: Chip Ganassi Racing

The FOX Super 6 game brings a fresh way to get involved with INDYCAR racing. It’s not just about sitting back and watching the action.

If you like making predictions, you can boost your viewing experience—and maybe even win some cash. There’s something extra fun about having a stake in the outcome, right?
