[VIDEO] Take a Closer Look at the 2025 Corvette ZR1 that is Pacing the Indianapolis 500

It’s race day as much of the country will be tuning into the 109th running of the Indianapolis 500, but Corvette fans will be watching the exciting new 2025 Corvette ZR1 that is pacing the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing!”

Chevy Motorsport’s Todd Christensen joins the on-air crew from WTHR-TV in Indianapolis to talk about Chevrolet’s unique relationship with the Indianapolis 500 which goes back to when Chevy’s founder Louis Chevrolet and his two brothers raced at the famous track back in the early 20th century. Adding to the story is that the Chevrolet Corvette has paced the world famous race 22 times – more than any other brand!

During the interview we even get a cold start from the amazing 1064-hp Pace Car. With a top speed of 233 mph, the ZR1 is officially faster than the IndyCars it will be pacing.

NFL Hall of Famer Michael Strahan will have honor to be the official pace car driver for this year’s Indianapolis 500. The Green Flag for the Indy 500 will drop at 12:45 PM ET on Sunday, May 25th.
