(Indianapolis, IN) - The Indianapolis 500 is still scheduled later this month but there will be no spectators.  Originally, capacity was reduced to 50 percent capacity before again being reduced to 25-percent due to growing concerns about the pandemic.  A recent spike of COVID-19 cases nationwide has now led to the decision to run the race without spectators in the stands.

The Indianapolis 500 is traditionally held the day before Memorial Day and has been pushed back to August 23rd back due to coronavirus.  The race will be broadcast locally on radio station 96.7 The Eagle.
