Gambling on fuel mileage, Unser caught up to Fittipaldi after a fortuitous caution period on lap 181, and subsequently took the lead on lap 196. </p><p>On the 199th lap, Unser was leading Fittipaldi, at which time the two leaders encountered slower traffic. Down the backstretch, Unser and Fittipaldi weaved through the slower cars, then Fittipaldi dived underneath going into turn three. The two cars touched wheels, and Unser spun out, crashing into the outside retaining wall. Fittipaldi completed the final lap under caution behind the pace car to score his first of two Indy 500 victories. Unser was uninjured, and despite the crash, was still credited with second place. Fittipaldi received <a href="/wiki/United_States_dollar" title="United States dollar">$</a>1,001,600 in prize money, the first time an Indianapolis 500 winner received over one million dollars.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>After dominating the <a href="/wiki/1988_Indianapolis_500" title="1988 Indianapolis 500">previous year's race</a>, all three cars of the <a href="/wiki/Penske_Racing" class="mw-redirect" title="Penske Racing">Penske</a> team failed to finish the race in 1989. <a href="/wiki/Danny_Sullivan" title="Danny Sullivan">Danny Sullivan</a> suffered a broken arm in a practice crash, then mechanical failures sidelined all three cars on race day.

The last time the track had been repaved was in 1976. The apron at the bottom of the track (typically used for warm-up and cool-down laps, as well as an escape lane for slowing cars), which was previously known to be bumpy, relatively flat, and usually avoided by drivers, was also repaved. The racing surface was separated from the apron by a painted white line. The smooth and re-profiled apron was now tempting drivers to dip below the white line in practice and during the race. Drivers were starting to treat the apron as an extension of the track width. USAC announced penalties would be assessed for driving with four wheels below the white line excessively, other than to make routine passes in heavy traffic. </p><p>The rough and bumpy concrete pit lane was also paved over in asphalt and a guardrail was installed to protect the crew members in the sign board area. The newly paved pit area made egress and ingress to the pits smoother and safer, but also sharply increased entrance and exit speeds, potentially putting crew members at risk. Within a few years, after a succession of incidents on the Indy car circuit, as well as in <a href="/wiki/NASCAR" title="NASCAR">NASCAR</a>, pit road speed limits would be implemented to curtail excessive speeding through the pit lane. In addition the pneumatic jacks built into the cars were found to be embedding themselves into the soft asphalt of the pit lane. This necessitated crews to affix steel plates on the pit lane to accommodate the jacks (a practice that was also later deemed unsafe). In 1994, this would be finally be solved when the individual pit boxes were resurfaced in concrete. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Rule_changes">Rule changes</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1989_Indianapolis_500&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Rule changes"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p><a href="/wiki/Goodyear_Tire_and_Rubber_Company" title="Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company">Goodyear</a> arrived at the track providing both a hard and soft compound tire.

With the crowd cheering him on, at 5:58 p.m., Rutherford pulled out onto the track for one final attempt. He had a great warm-up lap of over 217 mph (349 km/h), but just after he took the green flag, his engine blew in turn one. Seconds later, the 6 o'clock gun went off.

The car rebounded into the attenuating barrier at the pit entrance (also breaking the ABC Sports robo camera at the pit road entry), broke in two pieces, and slid on its side through the pits.

During that stretch, several contenders retired due to mechanical failures, including all three Penske machines. Top-five contenders <a href="/wiki/Bobby_Rahal" title="Bobby Rahal">Bobby Rahal</a>, Jim Crawford, and <a href="/wiki/Arie_Luyendyk" title="Arie Luyendyk">Arie Luyendyk</a> also dropped out of the race. Mario Andretti experienced electrical problems, which caused him to lose significant ground to the leader. Michael Andretti, who had started in the seventh row, had been chasing Fittipaldi the entire race and by the 150-lap mark, he was within sights of the leader. Meanwhile, Al Unser Jr. remained on the lead lap in third place, despite being lapped earlier in the race. By this point, the three leaders had significant distance on the fourth place car of <a href="/wiki/Raul_Boesel" title="Raul Boesel">Raul Boesel</a>. With less than 100 miles to go, Michael Andretti passed Fittipaldi for the lead, but his engine expired a few laps later. Fittipaldi regained the lead, with <a href="/wiki/Al_Unser_Jr." title="Al Unser Jr.">Al Unser Jr.</a> second. The remainder of the field ran at least six laps behind. </p><p>A caution came out on lap 181 when <a href="/wiki/Tero_Palmroth" title="Tero Palmroth">Tero Palmroth</a> lost a wheel in turn four. Leader Fittipaldi pitted for much-needed fuel, but he nearly stalled his engine as he pulled away. He lost several seconds on the stop, and was also blocked momentarily by a safety truck as he exited the pit area. <a href="/wiki/Al_Unser_Jr." title="Al Unser Jr.">Al Unser Jr.</a> was running a distant second place, but the caution came partly to his advantage. On the previous rounds of pit stops, Unser Jr. had been experiencing slightly better fuel mileage than Fittipaldi. The team had been setting Unser up to potentially make it to the finish on one less pit stop than Fittipaldi. Under this late yellow, the team decided to gamble on track position, and Unser stayed out and did not to pit for fuel. Unser emerged just one car behind Fittipaldi. Team owner <a href="/wiki/Rick_Galles" class="mw-redirect" title="Rick Galles">Rick Galles</a> made the call not to pit – their fuel calculations were close enough that believed they could make it to the finish. Their reasoning was that even if Unser ran out of fuel on the final lap, they would still finish no worse than second since third place Raul Boesel was six laps behind. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Finish">Finish</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1989_Indianapolis_500&action=edit&section=29" title="Edit section: Finish"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>When the race restarted on lap 186, Fittipaldi quickly built a 3-second lead while Unser struggled to get around the lapped car of <a href="/wiki/Raul_Boesel" title="Raul Boesel">Raul Boesel</a> (3rd place). Boesel's car was spewing fluid, and appeared ready to blow. After clearing Boesel, Unser began closing dramatically. By lap 193 he was directly behind Fittipaldi, and a lap later he nearly touched wheels with him as the two drivers worked around the lapped cars of <a href="/wiki/Derek_Daly" title="Derek Daly">Derek Daly</a> and <a href="/wiki/Mario_Andretti" title="Mario Andretti">Mario Andretti</a> and battled for the lead. On lap 196, Unser passed Fittipaldi for the lead in turn three and began to pull away. Unser's light fuel load made him much faster on the straights but there was still considerable fear he might run out of fuel short of the finish line. </p><p>With two laps to go, Unser approached a line of slower cars consisting of <a href="/wiki/Rocky_Moran" title="Rocky Moran">Rocky Moran</a>, <a href="/wiki/Ludwig_Heimrath" title="Ludwig Heimrath">Ludwig Heimrath Jr.</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bernard_Jourdain" title="Bernard Jourdain">Bernard Jourdain</a> and <a href="/wiki/John_Jones_(racing_driver)" title="John Jones (racing driver)">John Jones</a>. The two leaders were able to get around Moran easily in turn one, but Unser was held up behind Heimrath through turn two, allowing Fittipaldi to close in rapidly. On the backstretch, Fittipaldi pulled inside Unser, who then cut to the inside to pass Heimrath. Both cars ran side-by-side down the backstretch, going 3-wide to pass Jourdain on the inside as they entered turn 3. Unser remained on the racing line, with Fittipaldi down low on the warm-up apron. Near the apex of the corner, Fittipaldi's car oversteered and drifted slightly up the track, and the two cars touched wheels. Unser spun and crashed hard into the turn three wall, while Fittipaldi recovered from the drift and continued on. The yellow flag came out for the last lap with Fittpaldi leading, cruising around on his way to certain victory. </p><p>Unser emerged from his crashed car unhurt and stepped to the edge of the track to gesticulate at Fittipaldi as he drove by. According to Unser, at the last second he reconsidered and gave Fittipaldi a sporting thumbs-up instead,<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> but some viewers interpreted his gesture as a mocking one.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-15" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-15"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>15<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The pace car escorted the field around the final corner, and for the second year in a row, the race finished under caution. Emerson Fittipaldi took the checkered flag, his first of two Indy 500 victories. Despite the crash Unser was still credited with second place, having completed four more laps than Boesel in third. Boesel managed to nurse his failing motor to the checkered flag. The third place was his best Indy finish, and best finish to-date for <a href="/wiki/Doug_Shierson_Racing" title="Doug Shierson Racing">Shierson Racing</a>. </p><p>Fittipaldi's win was well-received by the Indy car community. Fittipaldi also spoke, in his native Portuguese, a greeting to the people in Brazil in victory lane, to the thunderous roars of the crowd. Al Unser Jr., after being checked out and released from the track hospital, congratulated his adversary on the win, and rejected theories that Fittipaldi intentionally crashed him in response to their previous year's tangle at the <a href="/wiki/Meadowlands_Grand_Prix" title="Meadowlands Grand Prix">Meadowlands</a>. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Box_score">Box score</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1989_Indianapolis_500&action=edit&section=30" title="Edit section: Box score"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th>Finish </th> <th>Start </th> <th>No </th> <th>Name </th> <th>Qual </th> <th>Chassis </th> <th>Engine </th> <th>Laps </th> <th>Status </th></tr> <tr> <th>1 </th> <td align="center">3 </td> <td align="center">20 </td> <td><span class="flagicon"><span class="mw-image-border" typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/Brazil" title="Brazil"><img alt="Brazil" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/05/Flag_of_Brazil.svg/22px-Flag_of_Brazil.svg.png" decoding="async" width="22" height="15" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/05/Flag_of_Brazil.svg/33px-Flag_of_Brazil.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/05/Flag_of_Brazil.svg/43px-Flag_of_Brazil.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1000" data-file-height="700" /></a></span></span> <a href="/wiki/Emerson_Fittipaldi" title="Emerson Fittipaldi">Emerson Fittipaldi</a> </td> <td>222.329 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Penske_PC-18" title="Penske PC-18">Penske PC-18</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Ilmor-Chevrolet_265-A_engine" title="Ilmor-Chevrolet 265-A engine">Ilmor-Chevrolet</a> </td> <td>200 </td> <td>167.581 mph </td></tr> <tr> <th>2 </th> <td align="center">8 </td> <td align="center">2 </td> <td><span class="flagicon"><span class="mw-image-border" typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/United_States" title="United States"><img alt="United States" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/23px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png" decoding="async" width="23" height="12" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/35px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/46px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1235" data-file-height="650" /></a></span></span> <a href="/wiki/Al_Unser_Jr." title="Al Unser Jr.">Al Unser Jr.</a> </td> <td>218.642 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Lola_Cars" title="Lola Cars">Lola</a> <a href="/wiki/Lola_T89/00" title="Lola T89/00">T89/00</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Ilmor-Chevrolet_265-A_engine" title="Ilmor-Chevrolet 265-A engine">Ilmor-Chevrolet</a> </td> <td>198 </td> <td>Crash T3 </td></tr> <tr> <th>3 </th> <td align="center">9 </td> <td align="center">30 </td> <td><span class="flagicon"><span class="mw-image-border" typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/Brazil" title="Brazil"><img alt="Brazil" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/05/Flag_of_Brazil.svg/22px-Flag_of_Brazil.svg.png" decoding="async" width="22" height="15" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/05/Flag_of_Brazil.svg/33px-Flag_of_Brazil.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/0/05/Flag_of_Brazil.svg/43px-Flag_of_Brazil.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1000" data-file-height="700" /></a></span></span> <a href="/wiki/Raul_Boesel" title="Raul Boesel">Raul Boesel</a> </td> <td>218.228 </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Lola_Cars" title="Lola Cars">Lola</a> <a href="/wiki/Lola_T89/00" title="Lola T89/00">T89/00</a> </td> <td><a href="/wiki/Judd_(engine)" title="Judd (engine)">Judd AV</a> </td> <td>194 </td> <td>Flagged </td></tr> <tr> <th>4 </th> <td align="center">5 </td> <td align="center">5 </td> <td><span class="flagicon"><span class="mw-image-border" typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/United_States" title="United States"><img alt="United States" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/23px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png" decoding="async" width="23" height="12" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/35px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg/46px-Flag_of_the_United_States.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="1235" data-file-height="650" /></a></span></span> <a href="/wiki/Mario_Andretti" title="Mario Andretti">Mario Andretti</a> <b><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r981673959"><span class="legend-color mw-no-invert" style="background-color:gold;

It would be Palmer's 32nd and final 500 as part of the radio crew. Bob Forbes reported from victory lane. </p><p>One of the more significant changes involved Howdy Bell, now becoming the "elder statesman" of the crew. After many years in turn two, then one year as a pit reporter, Bell revived the backstretch reporting location. Bell was utilized sparingly, mostly for observations and brief commentary. The on-air "Statistician" duty was eliminated for 1989. This would be Bob Lamey's last year in turn two, and <a href="/wiki/Bob_Jenkins" title="Bob Jenkins">Bob Jenkins</a>' final year as the radio reporter in turn four. </p><p>The biggest departure for 1989 was that of pit reporter Luke Walton, who had joined the crew in the mid-1950s. From 1983 to 1988, Walton reprised his traditional role of introducing the starting command during the pre-race ceremonies, but did not have an active role during the race itself. Pit reporter <a href="/wiki/Gary_Gerould" title="Gary Gerould">Gary Gerould</a> took over the duty of introducing the starting command, but it would be the final time that was done on the radio broadcast. Starting in 1990, the radio would instead simulcast the public address system during the pre-race ceremonies. This was Gerould's last year on the radio broadcast. He would work the TV broadcast starting in 1990. In addition, Chuck Marlowe switched from pit reporter to the garage area duties. </p><p>Three-time Indy winner <a href="/wiki/Johnny_Rutherford" title="Johnny Rutherford">Johnny Rutherford</a> failed to qualify for the race, and joined the crew as "driver expert." Since Rutherford never again qualified for the race (and subsequently retired in 1994), he went on to become a long-time fixture on the broadcast.
