With Dixon in the favored pole position, there are a few other drivers to keep your eye on. Defending series champion Alex Palou is in second and the field is made up of many former champions. Tony Kanaan, who won in 2013 is in sixth. Helio Castroneves, last year’s winner, is starting at the back of the field, but he definitely has the wiliness to move up the pack and cause trouble.
Jimmie Johnson and Marcus Ericsson are starting near the front and have proven themselves to be quick through the qualifying. Colton Herta, fresh off his horrific crash in qualifying looks to be starting from the worst spot but anything can happen over the course of 500 miles.
Colton Herta AIRBORNE!

Romain Grosjean has looked promising in his first appearance at the Brickyard, and will start aside two-time winner Takuma Sato and 2018 winner Will Power alongside him.
With all of the possible stories that can be told at Indy, we will have to wait to see who finishes on pit row and who is drinking the milk.
