One of the highlights of Memorial Day weekend is the Indianapolis 500, a legendary race that is arguably the biggest motorsports event in the world. It doesn't get much better than being awarded the Borg-Warner Trophy and getting to drink the milk. This year will be the 101st Indianapolis 500 and four of the last six races have finished under three hours, so this is a quick chance to make some money in between eating some great food.

Well, it's about time to get down to business.

Here are five drivers to consider throwing on your card this weekend.

Scott Dixon - Scott Dixon is the overall favorite to win the Indianapolis 500 because he has pole position and a storied history in this event. Of course, Dixon won in Indy back in 2008, but he's also finished eighth or better in nine of his last 11 appearances. Dixon was runner-up in the 2012 Indy 500. So, while I like to lean towards longer odds when I can, Dixon’s +500 odds are low for a reason. He has by far the best chance to win, and it's still a chance to make five times your money.

Betting

Ryan Hunter-Reay - Ryan Hunter-Reay is coming off his best race of the season in which he finished third in the IndyCar Grand Prix, and he now has two top-five finishes overall. Hunter-Reay has to like the way he’s racing right now and should be able to carry that confidence into an event he’s had success at as well. Hunter-Reay won the Indianapolis 500 in 2014 and was third back in 2013, and he was sixth in his first appearance in this event in 2008. Hunter-Reay is more of a longshot with +1200 odds, but it's a play that could pay off.

Alexander Rossi - We’re getting +1400 odds with Alexander Rossi, who won this race last year as a rookie. That's something that's worth a look even if nobody has won the Indianapolis 500 back-to-back years since Helio Castroneves in 2001-02. Rossi should be confident heading into this week and is riding some decent form after posting two top-10 finishes in his last three races. Rossi has a chance to make even more history at just 25 years old, and with these odds, I think he's worth a shot in the dark.

Will Power - Will Power is bringing in odds of +800 this week, which is worth a look given his current form. Power won the Grand Prix and was runner-up in the Desert Diamond West Valley Phoenix Grand Prix. needless to say, Power is in better form than anybody heading into this week, and he's posted three straight top-10 finishes at the Indianapolis 500, which includes a runner-up spot in 2015. This is a decent shot to make eight times your money.

Tony Kanaan - Tony Kanaan is an Indy 500 veteran and has some decent starting position to help set the tone early. Kanaan made his Indianapolis 500 debut 15 years ago and has the results to show, which includes a win in 2013 and a fourth place finish last year. Kanaan has finished fourth or better in four of his last six appearances on this track. Kanaan also has two top-10 finishes in his last three races overall. Hard to turn down an experienced driver such as Kanaan with odds of +1200.

The racing community will soon turn its attention to the 103rd version of the Indianapolis 500. Considered by many to be the greatest racing event in history, the tradition is steep and there’s plenty of juicy odds to take advantage of. Unlike NASCAR where you have your two or three front-running factories, the Indy 500 is usually wide open and dark horses can actually play a factor.

Here are five drivers to consider throwing on this week’s card.

Indy 500 Betting Odds 2017

Will Power, +840 - Will Power has been a little disappointing when you compare to where he’s usually at this time of year, which could mean he’s due for a breakout performance. Power won the Indy 500 last year and was runner-up in 2015, so he’s no stranger to success at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. There’s also a history of continued winners with 27.1 percent of winners winning this race more than once. I like Power’s chances of becoming the 20th multiple winner at this historic event.

Helio Castroneves, +1300 - Helio Castroneves has just one race under his belt this year and three IndyCar races the last two years, so there’s reason for these odds given the rust. Switching over to Acura Team Penske, there’s an adjustment to be made for Castroneves. With that said, Castroneves is a three-time winner at the Indy 500, making him easily the most successful active driver at this event. He’s also a three-time runner-up at this race, most recently in 2017. Hard to put together an Indy 500 card without Castroneves, who can become the fourth driver to win this race four times and first since Rick Mears in 1991.

Josef Newgarden, +840 - Josef Newgarden has been the best driver through five races, finishing fourth or better in four of those tries and racking up 182 points. Newgarden hasn’t had a ton of success at the Indy 500, but the hunger is certainly there, as he said he’d take a win at this event over another IndyCar season championship. If his form holds, Newgarden has a terrific chance of finally breaking through and getting possibly the biggest win of his career up to this point.

Takuma Sato, +2400 - Takuma Sato is averaging a finish of 7.5 in his last four races and usually bounces back nicely after finishing outside of the top-10 the following week. Sato won the Indy 500 in 2017 and had the fastest lap of 226.9 mph during an open test run at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway last month. Again, there’s a long history of drivers winning this race multiple times once they first taste victory. There’s reason to like Sato to become the first Japanese driver to win the Indy 500 twice.

Scott Dixon, +1100 - Scott Dixon has been knocking on the door all year long, finishing third or better in five of his last six races overall. Dixon is averaging a finish of 2.3 in his last three races. Dixon won the Indy 500 in 2008 and had a third place finish last year. Overall, Dixon has finished eighth or better in 10 of his last 13 appearances at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Consistency has shown Dixon is going to be in the running for a victory whether he gets it or not, so 11 to 1 odds is worth strong consideration.
