Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton will drive the pace car, a 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, at the 107th Indianapolis 500. Haliburton is the first non-racer to drive the pace car since 2020, and he joins former IndyCar racers Sarah Fisher and Danica Patrick as recent pace car drivers. Haliburton said it's a tremendous honor to represent the Pacers at the biggest race in the world.
A new video from Savagegeese pits the Chevrolet Corvette Z06 against the Porsche 911 GT3 in a track test to determine which is the better sports car. The Chevy completed its quickest lap in 1 minute and 27.240 seconds, just barely beating the Porsche, with the 911 needing 1 minute and 27.320 seconds to run the circuit. The data revealed that while the Z06 was quicker around the track than the Porsche, they excelled in different portions of the race. The 911 GT3 was quicker through the curves, but the Corvette accelerated more quickly on the straights, negating the 911’s slight advantage.
