The cars, drivers and teams are still getting ready and are now in a time crunch, but the 2026 Indianapolis 500 field is set. Alex Palou will lead the 33-car field to green for The Greatest Spectacle in Racing on Sunday (12:30 p.m. ET on FOX). Palou won the pole during qualifying this past Sunday, posting a four-lap average of 232.248 miles per hour at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. He edged out Alexander Rossi and David Malukas, who will join him with a front-row starting position for the 110th Indy 500. This is his second Indy 500 pole (2023), and he's also the first defending Indy 500 champion to win the pole for the following year's race since Hlio Castroneves did it in 2010. But, as we've seen many times throughout past Indy 500s, no one is guaranteed anything, and a little luck is necessary to winning, along with a speedy car, of course. Experience matters too, and there are nine previous Indy 500 winners in the field: Alex Palou (2025), Josef Newgarden (2023, 2024), Marcus Ericsson (2022), Hlio Castroneves (2001, 2002, 2009, 2021), Takuma Sato (2017, 2020), Will Power (2018), Alexander Rossi (2016), Ryan Hunter-Reay (2014) and Scott Dixon (2008). Here's a look at the full starting grid for the 2026 Indy 500 on Sunday on FOX. Note: The qualifying runs for Caio Collet, who was 10th, and Jack Harvey, who was 29th, were disallowed after technical violations were found on their cars. They will start at the back of the field.

Mauricio Pochettino faces tough decisions ahead of the May 26 roster reveal as injuries and form issues complicate the final 26-man World Cup squad

DENVER Most of the Colorado Avalanches players returned to the ice for practice Saturday after a two-day break.Emphasis on most.Noticeably missing were defensemen Cale Makar and Brent Burns, along with forward Artturi Lehkonen. There to warm up before heading to the locker room was defenseman Josh Manson, while fellow blueliner Sam Malinski participated in a red, no-contact sweater.The Avalanche emerged from their second-round series with Minnesota with their share of bumps and bruises. Thats why this hiatus between series six full days of practice/rest was welcome. The Presidents Trophy-winning Avalanche dont kick off the Western Conference final against Vegas until Wednesday night.Theyre all dealing with stuff in their day-to-day, Avalanche coach Jared Bednar explained of Makar, Burns, Manson and Lehkonen.Expected to be back at practice soon?Yeah, Bednar responded. I think some of them will practice in the time we have.Lehkonen and Malinski both are dealing with upper-body injuries and didnt play in the final two games of the Minnesota series. Manson has been dealing with an upper-body ailment, while Makar, a Norris Trophy finalist, left the ice after a collision late in Game 5, only to return as Colorado won 4-3 in overtime. Burns is, well, 41 years old.Its good, Jack Drury said about the break, for a couple of guys that are banged up. Given them some extra time. For the rest of us, just kind of mentally get fresh. I think everyones really excited.The Avalanche didnt spend much time Saturday going over a game plan for Vegas. Instead, it was more of a chance to skate around and squeeze in a few shots on net.A couple days before the game well prepare and do some meetings, forward Martin Necas said. Until then, just all on us.The Avalanche and Golden Knights have some recent postseason history, with Vegas eliminating Colorado in the second round in 2021. The Knights fell behind 2-0 and trailed in the third period of Game 3 before reeling off four straight wins to take the series.Vegas has a new coach in John Tortorella but several remaining players from the team that won the Stanley Cup title in 2023. They also have Mitch Marner, who has 18 points in the postseason (seven goals, 11 assists) after being acquired in a deal with Toronto last June that sent Nicolas Roy to the Maple Leafs. Roy, a member of Vegas Stanley Cup team, now is with the Avalanche following a trade in March.Its an experienced group. Youre not going to rattle them, Bednar said about Vegas. Theyre very well-defined in their structure of their game. Theyre a stingy defensive team, and theyve got lots of firepower.The Golden Knights have some ailments, too, most notably captain Mark Stone and defenseman Jeremy Lauzon.Its a good team. I mean, were not looking past this team, Bednar said. These guys are healthy and firing on all cylinders ever since they made the coaching change.Vegas went went 7-0-1 to close out the regular season after Tortorella took over for Bruce Cassidy. They beat Utah in the first round and Anaheim in the second, both in six games.Colorado relied on defense to dispatch of Los Angeles in a first-round sweep. Against Minnesota, 16 Avalanche players scored in the 4-1 series win.Defense or offense, theyre ready for any style.We want to dominate the game so they have to adjust to us, said Necas, whose team had a week break after the first rounds. It will be a good challenge.
