The gates are now open.
Race day has arrived for the 110th running of the Indy 500 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, although we'd be remiss not to mention the fact that there is still a chance for precipitation.
How much of a chance is truly anybody's guess, and those guesses seemingly change by the hour, sometimes even quicker depending on where you look.
The race is scheduled to run for 200 laps around the four-turn, 2.5-mile (4.023-kilometer) Speedway, Indiana oval, and the field of 33 was set via three separate qualifying sessions this past Sunday afternoon, after Saturday's session was rained out.
Rows five through 11 were set by the results of the first round, which featured four-lap qualifying attempts from each of the 33 drivers. The top 12 drivers advanced to round two, and the top six drivers from round two to the Firestone Fast Six shootout for the pole position.
Here's a look at a row-by-row starting lineup for the 110th running of the Indy 500.
