Are you eager to watch Indy 500 2019? Then how much have you prepared to attend that event? For you who live around the spot surely could easily gain access to the tickets and some other things do not require any serious preparations. But for people living far away from Indianapolis, they need to carefully plan their trip to the state to begin with. This is not just about the race, but also about your convenience and safety so that you could peacefully watch the event without any worries. So, what kind of preparations you would need to make? Have you completed each of them? Then all that’s left is just wait for the day to come and enjoy the race!

Preparations for Indy 500 2019

First thing of all is to make sure that you get your hands on the admission tickets! There are several types of tickets you could purchase, but you could just buy the main race if you are on a tight budget. The general admission usually costs around $40. But you can also buy other tickets if you wish to watch the whole races of the current season. The tickets for the practice session would cost around $15. Here you can watch the participants, including the superstars and the champion preparing for the race.

You can see how they are testing the circuits and their performance for the upcoming race. Of course, they are not racing for real in this session. The performance you see might be different than the ones in qualification round or the main event. In this session, either the racers and the spectators could get information about the whole participant of the race. At least, you would get to see how the racers perform. The other one is the qualification round tickets which will cost you about $20. This round is like a mock race where it gets to decide the position and so on. You might get to see quite an interesting race during this round. At least half of their real performance and strategy will be shown.

If you are living outside the state, you would need to check the schedule and arrive days before the main event starts. Check the schedule of your preferred transportation to get there in time, make sure that you get the tickets far in advance because things might get very unexpected near the date. Do you have someplace to stay? If you prefer to stat at a hotel,you could also book the rooms in advance. There are many people who would come and see the Indy 500 2019 for themselves, and most of them must be originating from outside the area. If you book the hotels in advance, you might get to choose the one that is closer to the stadium. Book closer to the D day and you would get much less choice and much higher price.

You could be very eager to watch the Indy 500 2019 live, but first, make sure that everything has been prepared in advance so that there would be no rush when you are approaching the date.

On the other hand, the retired NASCAR and Indy Racing League champion, Tony Stewart stated that he wouldn’t participate in Indy 500 2019 in May. he retired from NASCAR back in 2016, and it has been so long since the last time he participated in Indy 500 in 2001. The man himself said that the upcoming year is not the time for him to start competing in Indianapolis 500 again. Before, the former champion stated that there is a possibility for him to enter the upcoming championship, but in fact, there is a lot more to think about first.

He was being realistic to the possibilities of him entering the race again, he even talked to Michael Andretti. He said that Roger Penske had an open invitation for him and he also thought that Chip Ganassi would be willing to put him back in their cars. Not so long from the time he made that statement, he received a call and an email from Bobby Rahal and David Letterman to run one of their cars. Of course, Stewart hasn’t responded to Rahal yet, because of some consideration he might want to think about first.

Meanwhile, Stewart has his hopes up for the races to come, Roger Penske actually has a different thought about it. It is true that he personally would want to help Stewart in any means, but if the situation has made it impossible for him, then he couldn’t do much about it. During Penske’s interview at Michigan International Speedway, he told the media that his lineup for Indy 500 2019 which consists of 4 cars is already booked for the next season. Even if he wants to make something happen, it would be impossible to do anything with the already booked cars. It is not about the next year’s event, but the following years to come. He already gets his schedule fully booked and there is nothing he can do about that. Talking about his schedule, he has Josef Newgarden, Simon Pagenaud, Helio Castroneves, and even the holding champion Will Power.

It is impossible for him to add the fifth car to the lineup unless he knows exactly what all his five cars would get the same treatment. Racing is not always about the money involved, it is also about the right combination of people who could work together until they reach the finish line, Penske said.
