The field is set for the 91st running of the Indianapolis 500, and once again Skip Barber is well represented. When the field of 33 takes the green flag Memorial Day Sunday, 15 of those drivers will be Skip Barber alum. The list includes four of the last six Indy 500 champions, as well as all three Andrettis and all three of the women in the starting lineup.
SBRS grads Michael and his son Marco are in, as is Danica Patrick, seen here with Bobby Rahal during her Barber Pro Series campaign in 2002.
