Rain forces Indy red flag.
The 91st Indianapolis 500 has been red flagged after 113 of the scheduled 200 laps due to rain.
With forecasts predicting showers throughout the day on Sunday, some were surprised that there was any racing at all, although with more bad weather systems coming through the Indianapolis area during the late afternoon/early evening hours, it is doubtful as to whether or not the race will continue.
As more than half of the 200 laps had been completed, the race would be called as a result if the precipitation persists.
