2024 Indianapolis 500: Start time, TV, live stream, lineup and key info for Sunday's race
All the information you need to get ready for the 108th running of the Indy 500, Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
eu.usatoday.comI don’t have live tool access right now to pull in the very latest Indy 500 start time. Based on typical recent practice, the Indy 500 green flag has commonly been scheduled around 12:45 p.m. ET on race day, with driver introductions about an hour before and the engines fired a few minutes prior to the start. However, start times can shift due to weather, special-events pre-shows, or network scheduling.
Here’s how to get the exact latest start time quickly:
- Check the Indianapolis Motor Speedway official site or Indy500.com for the current race day schedule and countdown.
- Look up the latest Today/Events schedule on major outlets (NBC Sports, USA Today Motors, Sporting News) close to race day for the precise start time and any weather-related adjustments.
- If you’re watching on TV, the network’s on-screen schedule and the race-day program usually list the exact green-flag time.
If you’d like, I can monitor up-to-date sources for you and summarize the official start time once I can access live information.
