This weekend, the green flag drops on the 104th Indianapolis 500 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.  An event pushed back several month, because of the COVID-19 pandemic.  A Siouxland man designed this year’s program, a tradition dating back to the first race.  Alex Wakefield, who lives near Sioux City, talks to SPM's Sheila Brummer about the design, his love for racing and how as a young child he only dreamed of such an achievement.
