On Carburetion Day, better known as Carb Day, at the Indianapolis 500 on Friday, the fastest car perhaps fittingly belonged to the two-time defending champion.

Two-time defending Indy 500 winner Josef Newgarden had the fastest lap of the 2-hour final practice on Carb Day at 225.687 mph.

Josef Newgarden thinks he still can win a third straight Indy 500, even after this week's penalty. "I just see a bigger mountain," he says.

The "Wienie 500" is a first-of-its-kind spectacle where the fleet of Wienermobiles will haul buns to the legendary Indianapolis Motor Speedway for a race unlike any other. The race is scheduled for Friday at 2 p.m. during race week’s annual Carb Day festivities.

Along with Carb Day practice, the pit crews for the 33 cars will get to show off in the annual Indy 500 Pit Stop Challenge, which is set to begin at 2:30 p.m. ET. Time: 11 a.m. ET
