2019 Indy 500 start time, TV schedule

The date for this year's Indianapolis 500, also known as The Greatest Spectacle in Racing, is set for Sunday, May 26 with a start time of 12 p.m. ET. For the first time ever, NBC is the TV channel on which the Indy 500 will be shown. Not a bad way to present the 103rd running of the Indianapolis 500.

NBC, though, is not the only place fans can watch this year's Indy 500 live stream options are available. The 2019 Indy 500 can be streamed live via fuboTV. (New fuboTV users can sign up with a seven-day free trial.) The race also can be streamed on NBCSports.com and with the NBC Sports app.

The Indy 500 is the finale of what was scheduled to be an entire month of IndyCar coverage from NBC in Indianapolis 500 live. The first practice for the 2019 Indy 500 was scheduled to take place a full 12 days before the race, with a total of nine practices and four qualifying sessions sprinkled into the days leading up to the Indy 500 Live. Practice sessions for the Indy 500 Free in the week leading up to the race, plus the morning qualifying session on Saturday, May 18, can be streamed live via INDYCAR Pass on NBC Sports Gold.

The Indy 500 has not seen a repeat winner since 2002, when Helio Castroneves reached victory lane, chugged the famed milk and kissed the bricks for the second consecutive year. That's bad news for Penske racing's Will Power, the winner of last season's Indy 500. Of the 36 drivers who are entered to race in the Indy 500 Live 2019, seven - Castroneves, Power, Scott Dixon, Ryan Hunter-Reay, Tony Kanaan, Alexander Rossi and Takuma Sato - are previous Indy 500 2019 winners.

Below is how to watch the 2019 Indianapolis 500, including the TV schedule, live stream info and qualifying results for The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.
