🏁On May 28, 1989 the 73rd Indianapolis 500 was held at the Indianapolis 500 Speedway. 2-time World Drivers' Champion Emerson Fittipaldi of Brazil became the first foreign-born winner of the race since 1969. Though Fittipaldi started on the front row and dominated much of the race, he found himself running 2nd in the waning laps. Michael Andretti passed Fittipaldi for the lead on lap 154, then led until his engine blew. Al Unser Jr. moved up to second, but trailed Fittipaldi by a big margin. Gam
