Jacques Villeneuve's crew tends to his car during a pit stop in 1995. Villeneuve would outlast six other drivers on the lead lap—including runner-up Christian Fittipaldi—in a fitting finish to the most recent 500 with a full field. A feud between Championship Auto Racing Teams (CART) and Indianapolis Motor Speedway would lead to the exclusion of many of the sport's top drivers starting in 1996.
