I can’t tell you that, but here is something interesting about the history of the race:

Who refused to drink milk after winning the Indy 500?
Emerson Fittipaldi
Indianapolis 500 milk tradition started in 1936

Nearly every winner since has taken part, with one famous exception. In 1993, Emerson Fittipaldi shocked fans by refusing the milk in Victory Lane and choosing orange juice instead, promoting Brazil’s citrus industry.Dec 16, 2025
