The Indianapolis 500 is going to look different this year, but the result will be the same with the winning driver drinking a bottle of milk in victory lane.

The Indianapolis 500 typically takes place in May, but the 104th running of the race will take place this Sunday without fans because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The tradition of drinking milk as a post-race celebration began in 1933 and dairy farmer Jill Houin will continue that tradition by presenting a bottle of milk to the winning driver this year.
