Who drives the pace car for the Indy 500? I would assume that you would need to have experience as a professional racer to do it since you’re on the track with other vehicles.

2021
, Danica Patrick, a former podium finisher in the Indy 500, drove the pace car for the race.After the start of the race, however, Sarah Fisher is responsible for driving the pace car during caution periods. She is also a former Indy 500 competitor, among other things, and has been performing this service for years now.
