The Indy 500 purse relies on crowd attendance. With no fans allowed at this year’s race, the purse has also been trimmed.
The 2020 Indianapolis 500 purse is expected to be $7.5 million. The 2019 purse was $13.09 million but new owner Roger Penske stated earlier in the year he intended to add $2M bringing the 2020 total to $15M. Due to the virus, those numbers have been drastically reduced to $7.5M.
The Indy 500 is expected to earn just over $1M in 2020. For comparison, Simon Pagenaud earned $2,669,529 for his 2019 Indy 500 win.
