IndyCar: Indy 500 will not be a sell out

IMS president Doug Boles told the IndyStar the track doesn’t expect to sell out its roughly 240,000 reserved grandstand seats for the Greatest Spectacle in Racing.

As of May 13, Boles said more than 90% of the track’s permanent seating is sold-out, including all of the track’s suites.

For central Indiana race fans whose plans May 29 involve anything other than watching the 500 in-person at IMS, it all but certainly means another year of a local blackout of the race’s live broadcast.

As has been the case for years, folks within a sizable radius of IMS will have to wait for the tape-delayed broadcast of the race that will air on NBC later Sunday evening, rather than being able to watch the race live when the green flag drops around 12:30 p.m.
