Parnelli Jones Wins Disputed 500 Victory
Indianapolis—Parnelli Jones, the youthful favorite, won the richest 500 mile race in record time, averaging 143.137 mph. He edged Scot Jimmy Clark by 34 seconds in a back‑and‑forth finish amid controversy over yellow flag rules. Clark, in a rear‑engine Ford, averaged 142.752 mph and challenged fiercely in the final laps. Top finishers beat the old 140.293 mph mark set by Rodger Ward a year earlier, with A J Foyt third and others in pursuit. No injuries were reported as 14 cars finished. McCluskey spun near the end and Sachs ran off course earlier.
