IndyCar: Monday Indy 500 practice pushed 1-hour later

IndyCar has announced a change to the schedule for practice for the Indianapolis 500.

Monday’s two-hour session has been moved back an hour, meaning it will now start at 1:00pm ET

“Moving from the originally scheduled time of noon-2 p.m. will give teams that participated in Top 12 Qualifying and the Firestone Fast Six on Sunday, May 22 more time to change to their ‘500’ race engines,” read IndyCar’s announcement, in part.

“Teams that qualified in the 13th to 33rd positions Saturday, May 21 will not turn laps on the 2.5-mile oval Sunday and will be allowed to change engines that day.”
