The 2006 Indianapolis 500 Preview
So who is going to win the 90th Indy 500? Tim Redmayne analyses the field
The favourites:
Sam Hornish Jr and Helio Castroneves
Not for 12 years has one team dominated the build up to the Indianapolis 500 like Penske Racing have in 2006.
Yet, the last time it happened, it was Penske leading the way too.
Thanks largely to Mercedes' incredible push-rod engine, Penske pretty much dominated the Month of May in 1994, and they have done so again this year. Just look at the raw statistics. Although rain has interrupted practice and qualifying, nine days of track time did actually take place. Penske Racing were fastest in eight of them.
