FOX Super 6 INDYCAR Contest: Bob Pockrass' Indy 500 Picks, Predictions

What's better than watching INDYCAR? Watching INDYCAR and winning money!

You can partake in the best of both worlds while watching INDYCAR during the 110th Running of the Indianapolis 500 on May 24 with our free-to-play FOX Super 6 game. The green flag for "The Greatest Spectacle In Racing" is scheduled for 12:45 p.m. ET. FOX coverage begins at 10 a.m. ET on Sunday.

How do you play? Enter the Indy 500 contest by predicting the correct answers to six questions before the race starts for your shot to win cash prizes.

All you have to do is finish in the top six to win a prize.

It really is that simple, and again, it's free.

But first, a caveat.

The drivers claim this is the hardest race to win because of the length of the race, the number of pit stops and the varying fuel and pit strategies — not to mention the speeds of more than 220 mph. So that also makes it one of the hardest to predict.

Read below for my thoughts on this weekend's exciting Indy 500.

1. Which former Indy 500 Winner will have the BEST FINISHING POSITION?

No. 6 Helio Castroneves, No. 2 Josef Newgarden, No. 26 Will Power, No. 28 Marcus Ericsson

So a month ago, I predicted that Newgarden — who won in 2023 and 2024 — would win in 2026. Does the fact he’s starting 23rd impact my confidence in that prediction? You bet it does. But of the other three drivers, none have an overwhelmingly strong starting spot and none have really shown jaw-dropping speed. Ericsson has been the most consistent driver to be there at the end, and he almost won last year (although he wound up officially at the rear because of a technical violation). Castroneves is going for a record fifth win, but like the rest on this list, hasn’t been too thrilling during the weeks in May.
