Alex Palou: 10
A dominant drive from the green flag to the chec꧒kered flag, and takes over the lead inꦜ the championship.
Pato O'Ward: 10
A🦹nother runner-up finish for O'Ward, his third in five races. He may not have the win, but he is carrying a ton of 🐟momentum into the biggest race of the year.
Alexander Rossi: 9
Things are beginning to click for Rossi and his new te🦋am, and it feels like another win is on the horizon.
Christian Lundgaard: 9
A brilliant weekend, considering how the season had started for the RLL Racing team. Pole position and nearly a podium finish should have them feeling good🌜 as the Month of May continues.
Felix Rosenqvist: 8
He narrowly♛ missed his third pole on the IMS road course, and scored another top-five finish in what was a s♛ensational day for the Arrow McLaren organization.
Scott Dixon: 7
In typical Dixon fashion, he turned a poor qualif🍨ying effort into a solid finish.
Josef Newgarden: 7
His rough day of qualifying didn't help, but a decent result tod✤ay just might provide the positive vibes they need fꦐor the 500.
Marcus Ericsson: 6
He may have given up the lead in the driver standings, but he will now s🦩et his sights on back-to-back 500 wins.
Colton Herta: 6
The weekend started 💙poorly with an engine fire, but Herta improved five positions in the race for a solid finish.

Graham Rahal: 7
The great ☂qualifying effort was ruined on the opening lap with contact, but he rebounded nicely for his 12th top-ten finish in the 14 IMS road course races, which is the m𒁏ost among all drivers.
Romain Grosjean: 5
Expect🍃ations were high for Grosjean coming into this weekend, and for good reason. It was a massive disappointment but the Andretti team will try to turn the page and get ready for his second 500 start.
Will Power: 4
This was an event that Power had💟 dominated in the past, but a mistake in qualifying and contact with Kyle Kirkwood early in the race made for a disappointing weekend.
Rinus VeeKay: 4
The struggles for VeeKay and the entire Ed Carpenter Racing team continue. They are always strong conten🌟ders on the oval, so they have that to look forward ไto.
Kyle Kirkwood: 5
He was qui🏅ck in qualifying but his contact with Power put him at the back of the field and he was never able to recover.
Marcus Armstrong: 5
It was a quiet day for the 🐲rookie, who now must wait nearly a month before his next chance to get behind the wheel.
Scott McLaughlin: 4
The Team Penske struggl🔯es hurt McLa🍌ughlin the most, as he took a big tumble in the championship standings.
Devlin DeFrancesco: 5
He was one of the pleasant surprises🙈 early in the race but he faded late and was not able to get back up into the top-half of the field.
Callum Ilott: 3
I🦄t was a weekend to forget for Ilott, who had a lot of optimism heading into this event.
Conor Daly: 3
Another bad day for ECR as they struggle t♏o find speed.
Jack Harvey: 4
The speed that Harvey showed in qualifying never translated to💦 the race, and he quickl🎃y faded to the back.

Agustin Canapino: 3
Not the showing t𒆙hat the rookie was ho🔜ping for as Juncos was nowhere close in terms of setup.
Helio Castroneves: 3
A blown engine to start the weekend was a sign of things to come. Fortunately, this race is over with and Castroneves can now focus on his primary goal of becoming the first five-time winner in India𓃲napolis 500 history.
Santino Ferrucci: 2
He and the Foyt team were never a factor.
Benjamin Pedersen: 2
See above.
Simon Pagenaud: 2
Something broke on his Meyer Shank Racing Honda, but he was already a non-factor in this race. The struggle🅰s for MSR and Pa🧜genaud don't seem to be getting any better.
David Malukas: 2
Crashing into your teammate♍ early in the race is never a good thing, even if it wasn't your f๊ault.
Sting Ray Robb: 1
Same as above, but the rookie was to blame.
