In May 2009, the ordinal (93rd) was used very sparingly, and for the first time since 1981, was not identified on the annual logo. Instead, in most instances in print, television, and radio, the race was referred to as the "2009 Indianapolis 500". Since the race was not held during the United States' participation in the two World Wars (1917–1918, 1942–1945), the advertised Centennial Era occurred during the 93rd to 95th runnings. To avoid confusion between the 100th anniversary, and the actual number of times the race has been run, references to the ordinal during the Centennial Era were curtailed. In the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/2014_Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="2014 Indianapolis 500">2014</a> meeting, the road course became part of the race meeting for the first time.

However, from its inception, the race has been widely known as the Indianapolis 500 or, more simply "the 500", as for many years, it was the only noteworthy auto race of such distance. In 1919, the race was referred to as the "Liberty Sweepstakes" following <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/World_War_I?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="World War I">WWI</a>.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-INDY8-45">[45]</a> From 1920 to 1980, the race officially reverted to the "International Sweepstakes" moniker, as printed on the tickets and other paraphernalia, with slight variations over the years. Following <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/World_War_II?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="World War II">WWII</a>, the race was commonly recognized as "The 500", "The 500-Mile Race", "Indianapolis 500-Mile Race", "Indianapolis 500", or the simple form "Indy 500". Usually the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Ordinal_numeral?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Ordinal numeral">ordinal</a> (e.g. "50th") preceded it. Often the race was also advertised on the radio as the "Annual Memorial Day race", or similar variations. By the late 20th century, the term "Indy 500" had slowly emerged as the most common and most popularly used moniker. As such, since 2016, the official race logo has used the contemporary and colloquial term "Indy 500". For the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/1981_Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="1981 Indianapolis 500">1981 race</a>, the name "65th Indianapolis 500-Mile Race" was officially adopted, with all references as the "International Sweepstakes" dropped. Since 1981, the race has been formally advertised in this fashion, complete with a unique annual logo with the ordinal almost always included. Around that same time, in the wake of the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/1979_Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="1979 Indianapolis 500">1979</a> entry controversy, and the formation of <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Champ_Car?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Champ Car">CART</a>, the race changed to an invitational event, rather than an <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Open_(sport)?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Open (sport)">Open</a>, rendering the "<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Sweepstakes?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Sweepstakes">sweepstakes</a>" description inappropriate. For nearly a century, the race eschewed any sort of <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Naming_rights?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Naming rights">naming rights</a> or <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Sponsor_(commercial)?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Sponsor (commercial)">title sponsor</a>, a move, though uncommon in the modern sports world, that was well received by fans.

That is unique to most sports where major events are usually at the end of the respective season. Currently, the Indy 500 is the sixth event of the 17-race IndyCar schedule. From the 1970s to the 1990s, Indianapolis was often the second or third race of the season, and as late as the 1950s, it was sometimes the first championship event of the year. Due to the high prestige of the Indianapolis 500—rivaling or even surpassing the season championship—it is not uncommon for some teams and drivers to focus heavily on preparing for that race during the early part of the season, and not focus fully on the championship battle until after Indy. Due to safety issues such as <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Aquaplaning?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Aquaplaning">aquaplaning</a>, the race is not held in wet conditions.

If rain falls during the race itself, officials will halt the race (red flag) and await safe conditions. The officials can end the race and declare the results official if more than half of the scheduled distance (i.e., 101 laps) has been completed. If less than half the distance has been completed, the race must be resumed and achieve at least the 101-lap distance in order to be official. A primary limiting factor is available daylight, as the track does not have lighting. If the race is halted and cannot be resumed before sunset, the resumption will be scheduled for the next possible day.

The field at Indy typically consists of all of the full-time IndyCar Series entries (roughly 20–22 cars), along with roughly 10–15 part-time or "Indy-only" entries. The "Indy-only" entries, also known as "One-offs", may be an extra car added to an existing full-time team, or a part-time team altogether that does not enter any of the other races, or enters only a few selected races. The "Indy-only" drivers may come from a wide range of pedigrees but are usually experienced Indy car competitors who either lack a full-time ride, are former full-time drivers who have elected to drop down to part-time status, or occasional one-off drivers from other racing disciplines. It is not uncommon for some drivers (particularly former Indy 500 winners) to quit full-time driving during the season, but race solely at Indy for numerous years afterward before entering full retirement. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"> <h3 id="Technical_regulations">Technical regulations</h3> <a role="button" href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/w/index.php?title=Indianapolis_500&action=edit&section=12&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Edit section: Technical regulations" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/File:PenskePC23.jpg?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-file-description"> <noscript> <img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/PenskePC23.jpg/220px-PenskePC23.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="131" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="951" data-file-height="565"> </noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 131px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/PenskePC23.jpg/220px-PenskePC23.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="131" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/PenskePC23.jpg/330px-PenskePC23.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/97/PenskePC23.jpg/440px-PenskePC23.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a> <figcaption> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Penske_PC-23?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Penske PC-23">Penske PC-23</a> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Mercedes-Benz?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Mercedes-Benz">Mercedes</a>, <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/1994_Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="1994 Indianapolis 500">1994</a> winning car </figcaption> </figure> Technical specifications for the Indianapolis 500 are currently written by <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/IndyCar?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="IndyCar">IndyCar</a>. Rules are generally the same as every other IndyCar race. In the past, particularly during the era in which USAC sanctioned the Indy 500 (but CART sanctioned the other Indy car races), rules at Indy slightly differed at times. The result, for example, would be a particular chassis or engine configuration being legal at Indy, but not so at the CART-sanctioned events. This was rather commonplace in the 1980s and early 1990s, when "stock-block" engines (namely the V-6 Buick) were allotted an increased level of turbocharger boost by USAC at Indy, compared to the purpose-built V-8 quad-cam engines. While the "stock block" engines were technically legal in CART competition, they were not given the increased boost advantage, which effectively rendered them uncompetitive, and precluded their use by teams. The most famous manifestation of the USAC rules disparity was the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Ilmor?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Ilmor">Ilmor</a>-built <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Ilmor?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#Racing_in_the_USA" title="Ilmor">Mercedes-Benz 500I</a> engine fielded by <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Roger_Penske?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Roger Penske">Roger Penske</a> in <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/1994_Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="1994 Indianapolis 500">1994</a>.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-INDY31-50">[50]</a> Teams may enter up to two machines under a given car number—the "primary" car and a "backup" car. The backup car is identified by the letter "T". For example, the two cars for the #2 team would be numbered #2 and #2T. Both cars may be practiced during the month, but due to engine lease rules, they must share the same engine. It is not uncommon for teams to prefer their backup car, if it is deemed faster, or for other strategic reasons. Additionally, as the month wears on, a "T car" may be split off into a separate entry, and reassigned a new number, or be sold to another team. All cars must pass a rigorous technical inspection before receiving a sticker signifying that the car is eligible to practice. Various criteria include minimum weight, dimensions, and approved parts, particularly safety equipment. Before and after qualification attempts, cars must pass another inspection. The pre-qualifying inspection is focused on safety aspects and is done on the pit lane qualifying queue. It is relatively brief, due to the time constraints of the qualifying procedure. The post-qualifying inspection is much more stringent and lengthy, taking place in the garage area. It is to detect deviations from the performance guidelines set forth by the league, and cars can and have been fined or outright disqualified if they fail inspection. During the race, work on the car is permitted, but it is usually limited to routine pit stop work (changing tires and refueling) and minor adjustments (wing angles, etc.) Pit stop activity is rigorously rehearsed by the crews and in modern times, routine pits stops are regularly completed in under ten seconds. Other more involved work, such as replacing damaged bodywork (wings, nose cones, etc.), can also be completed quickly by the crews. More lengthy repairs are allowed, and since 1998 teams are permitted to return to the garage area to make repairs. However, there are limitations to the extent of repair work allowed and the practicality of such work. Teams are not allowed to change engines, and since 1933<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-51">[51]</a> a rule has been in place where teams are not allowed to add <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Motor_oil?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Motor oil">oil</a>.

On Day 1, positions 13–30 (or 13–33 if there are only 33 entries) have their position set with all other positions set on Day 2. Following Fast Friday practice, all cars are entered into a blind draw for the qualifying order. <ul> <li>Saturday: All entries are guaranteed at least one attempt to qualify and can make additional attempts if time permits. At the end of the session, the fastest twelve drivers advance to a "shootout" session held on the next day to determine pole position and the first four rows of the grid. As mentioned above, drivers who qualify 10th–30th have their spots locked in and will not re-qualify. Drivers who qualify 31st and lower advance to a separate "shootout" session also held on the next day to determine the final three spots on the grid. For re-attempts, there are two lanes: Lane 2 is known as the "no risk lane" and drivers can keep their previous time if their second (or subsequent) run is slower. Lane 1 is known as the "priority lane", and no cars from lane 2 are allowed on track unless lane 1 is empty. However, to re-qualify in lane 1 you must withdraw any previous times, regardless if the attempt is slower than a previous one.</li> <li>Sunday: The drivers who qualified 31st and lower from Saturday have their original times erased. There is one 75 minute session. Each driver gets one guaranteed attempt and can make additional attempts if time permits. Drivers who qualify 31st–33rd have their positions locked in. Drivers who finish 34th and lower fail to qualify. The fastest twelve drivers from Saturday take part in a second round of qualifying, with the top six advancing to the Firestone Fast Six. The qualifying order is based on the times from Saturday's session from slowest to fastest. Once again, the times from Saturday are erased and each driver is given only one attempt, locking in positions 7–12. Following a cool down period, including all cars taking slow cool down laps on track behind the pace/safety car, the remaining six drivers get one final attempt. The fastest driver wins the highly coveted pole position and the remaining five drivers have their positions locked in based on their times.</li> </ul> For each attempt, cars are allowed two warm-up laps. At that time, a member of the team is stationed at the north end of the main stretch. He or she must wave a green flag, signaling an attempt, or else the car will be waved off. The attempt can be waved off during any of the four laps by the team, driver, or race officials. (The series will wave off the run if it is obvious the run will not be fast enough to qualify and it is getting late in the day.) If an attempt is waved off after the run starts, the attempt counts and the previous time is still forfeited unless race officials waved off the attempt because of weather. Weather can and often does affect qualifying and can result in last-minute format changes. </section> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(3)"> <h2 id="Race_sanctioning">Race sanctioning</h2> <a role="button" href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/w/index.php?title=Indianapolis_500&action=edit&section=14&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Edit section: Race sanctioning" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> <section class="mf-section-3 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-3"> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"> <h3 id="AAA_and_USAC">AAA and USAC</h3> <a role="button" href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/w/index.php?title=Indianapolis_500&action=edit&section=15&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Edit section: AAA and USAC" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/File:The_Spoils.jpg?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-file-description"> <noscript> <img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/The_Spoils.jpg/170px-The_Spoils.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="227" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1200" data-file-height="1600"> </noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 170px;height: 227px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/The_Spoils.jpg/170px-The_Spoils.jpg" data-width="170" data-height="227" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/The_Spoils.jpg/255px-The_Spoils.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8d/The_Spoils.jpg/340px-The_Spoils.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a> <figcaption> The <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Borg-Warner_Trophy?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Borg-Warner Trophy">Borg-Warner Trophy</a> presented to Indy 500 winners in victory lane, otherwise on permanent display at the Hall of Fame Museum </figcaption> </figure> From 1911 to 1955, the race was organized under the auspices of the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/American_Automobile_Association?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="American Automobile Association">AAA</a> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/AAA_Contest_Board?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="AAA Contest Board">Contest Board</a>.

It became the lone top-level race the body still sanctioned, as it ultimately dropped all other Indy car races (as well as their <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/USAC_Stock_Car?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="USAC Stock Car">stock car division</a>) to concentrate on <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Sprint_car_racing?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Sprint car racing">sprints</a> and <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Midget_car_racing?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Midget car racing">midgets</a>. For the next three years, the race was not officially recognized on the CART calendar, but the CART teams and drivers comprised the field. By 1983, an agreement was made for the USAC-sanctioned Indy 500 to be recognized on the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Champ_Car?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Champ Car">CART</a> calendar and the race awarded points towards the CART championship. Despite the CART/USAC divide, from 1983 to 1995 the race was run in relative harmony. CART and USAC occasionally quarreled over relatively minor technical regulations but utilized the same machines and the CART-based teams and driver comprised the bulk of the Indy 500 entries each year. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"> <h3 id="IndyCar_Series">IndyCar Series</h3> <a role="button" href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/w/index.php?title=Indianapolis_500&action=edit&section=16&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Edit section: IndyCar Series" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/File:2007_Indianapolis_500_-_Starting_field_formation_before_start.jpg?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-file-description"> <noscript> <img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c4/2007_Indianapolis_500_-_Starting_field_formation_before_start.jpg/220px-2007_Indianapolis_500_-_Starting_field_formation_before_start.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="133" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1206" data-file-height="729"> </noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 133px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c4/2007_Indianapolis_500_-_Starting_field_formation_before_start.jpg/220px-2007_Indianapolis_500_-_Starting_field_formation_before_start.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="133" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c4/2007_Indianapolis_500_-_Starting_field_formation_before_start.jpg/330px-2007_Indianapolis_500_-_Starting_field_formation_before_start.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c4/2007_Indianapolis_500_-_Starting_field_formation_before_start.jpg/440px-2007_Indianapolis_500_-_Starting_field_formation_before_start.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a> <figcaption> The starting field of the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/2007_Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="2007 Indianapolis 500">2007 Indianapolis 500</a> in formation before the start </figcaption> </figure> In 1994, Speedway owner <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Tony_George?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Tony George">Tony George</a> announced plans for a new series, to be called the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Indy_Racing_League?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Indy Racing League">Indy Racing League</a>, with Indy 500 as its centerpiece.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Indianapolis_500?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-INDY26-54">[54]</a> George announced that he intended to reverse the tide of dramatic cost increases, the decreasing number of <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Oval_track_racing?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Oval track racing">ovals</a> in the CART series, and to allow for more opportunity for drivers from USAC sprint-car ranks.
