IndyCar: Full qualifying order revealed for 2023 Indy 500

Fast Friday’s evening qualifying draw is complete, and the full qualifying order for the 107th running of the Indy 500 has been confirmed.

Following Fast Friday’s Indy 500 practice session at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, each of the 34 drivers set to attempt to qualify for the 107th running of the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing” either drew or had someone draw a number to set the qualifying order for Saturday’s qualifying session.

It was Dreyer & Reinbold Racing’s Ryan Hunter-Reay whose team pulled the number one spot, meaning that the driver of the No. 23 Chevrolet is set to lead things off on Saturday morning.

Each driver is set to make a four-lap qualifying attempt around the four-turn, 2.5-mile (4.023-kilometer) Speedway, Indiana oval on Saturday.

The fastest 12 drivers (over four laps) advance to the Top 12 qualifying session on Sunday afternoon, the drivers who rank from 13th to 30th are locked into their starting positions, and the drivers who rank from 31st to 34th must qualify via the Last Chance qualifying session on Sunday afternoon. One of those four drivers won’t make it into the field of 33.
