Indy 500 line-up: How the starting grid looks – full driver line-up

The Indy 500, one of motorsport’s most prestigious events, gets underway at 5.45pm (BST).

Fernando Alonso, who sensationally quit Formula 1 last year to pursue the Triple Crown, failed to qualify for the race.

The remaining 33 drivers who booked their place in the race will do 200 laps of the 2.5mile Indianapolis Motor Speedway circuit in Indiana.

Simon Pagenaud, Ed Carpenter and Spencer Pigot will start on the front row, while last year’s winner, Will Power, must fight his way from sixth to defend his crown.
