\"\"Chevrolet y Corvette han encabezado con distintos modelos el inicio de esta carrera, como el auto \u201cPace Car\u201d en numerosas ocasiones, guiando m\u00e1s carreras que cualquier otro fabricante y marca, respectivamente.<\/span><\/p>\n

De esta manera, este a\u00f1o 2022 es la 33ava ocasi\u00f3n en que Chevrolet antecede a los competidores desde 1948, y la 19ava desde 1978 para este carro deportivo. <\/span><\/p>\n

Acabados en Pearl White Metallic con insignia exterior del 70 Aniversario, equipado con el paquete de rendimiento disponible Z07 para m\u00e1xima capacidad en pista, banderas Corvette especiales y pinzas de freno en Edge Red y logo del 70 Aniversario en asientos, volantes y placas de alf\u00e9izar.<\/span><\/p>\n

FISHER TO DRIVE 2023 CORVETTE Z06 70TH ANNIVERSARY PACE CAR<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Former INDYCAR SERIES driver and team owner Sarah Fisher, who remains the fastest woman in Indianapolis 500 history, will drive the 2023 Corvette Z06 70th Anniversary Edition Pace Car to lead the field to the green flag for the 106th\u00a0Indianapolis 500 on Sunday, May 29 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Ohio native Fisher started \u201cThe Greatest Spectacle in Racing\u201d nine times between 2000 and 2010, a record for female drivers. Her fastest four-lap qualifying speed of 229.439 mph in 2002 also remains an event record for a female driver.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fisher also was the first woman to win the pole position for a major North American open-wheel event, for the INDYCAR SERIES race in 2002 at Kentucky Speedway. She also was the first female driver to earn a top-three finish in INDYCAR SERIES competition, placing third in 2000 at Kentucky Speedway and second in 2001 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 2023 Corvette Z06 is powered by the all-new 5.5L LT6 which creates 670 horsepower, making it the highest-horsepower naturally aspirated V-8 ever to hit the market in any production car. The Indianapolis 500 Corvette Z06 Pace Car exudes confidence with a wide stance and exotic mid-engine proportions. This year\u2019s Pace Car is equipped with the available Z07 Performance Package, featuring a carbon fiber rear wing, aerodynamic ground effects, carbon ceramic brakes and more, for maximum track capability.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"With a nod to Corvette\u2019s 70-year history, the Pace Car is a model year 2023 70th Anniversary Edition Z06, finished in a special White Pearl Tri-Coat Metallic paint. Unique to this package on the production car and the Pace Car are 70th Anniversary Edition exterior badging, including special Corvette crossflags, Edge Red brake calipers and the 70th Anniversary Edition logo on seats, steering wheel and sill plates.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chevrolet\u2019s Performance Design Studio created an asymmetric stripe package specifically for the Pace Car that draws inspiration from the 70th Anniversary Edition badging on the door of the Z06.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chevrolet and Corvette have led the starting field more than any other manufacturer and nameplate, respectively. The 2022 race marks the 33rd time for Chevrolet to pace dating back to 1948, and the 19th time since 1978 for America\u2019s favorite sports car.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cSarah Fisher is an Indianapolis 500 icon who always takes the time to appreciate her fans and represent the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and \u2018The Greatest Spectacle in Racing\u2019 with class and humility,\u201d IMS President J. Douglas Boles said. \u201cShe is such a fitting person for this honor, and it will be such a thrill and privilege to see her lead the field of 33 cars to the green flag before a huge crowd at the track and a global television audience.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sure Sarah will enjoy driving the 2023 Corvette Z06 70th Anniversary Edition, which is an incredible car with the performance to match its great looks.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

After her driving career, Fisher turned to team ownership, providing two-time series champion Josef Newgarden with his first ride in the INDYCAR SERIES. Since her team ownership role ended, she stayed involved with the sport by serving as the Pace Car driver at selected NTT INDYCAR SERIES events.<\/span><\/p>\n

She now co-owns with her husband, Andy O\u2019Gara, the successful Speedway Indoor Karting facilities in Speedway, Indiana, and Daytona Beach, Florida, and is the mother of two children.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEvery time I\u2019ve had the opportunity to drive at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, it\u2019s been special \u2013 from INDYCAR SERIES cars to two-seaters to vintage cars,\u201d Fisher said. \u201cDriving the Pace Car is just as special of an honor. And to have served in that role for the NTT INDYCAR SERIES since Johnny Rutherford retired, I\u2019ve had many great memories to add to my career.\u2206<\/span><\/p>\n
