So far I can only think of one rider that will surely podium at Indy and that would be Jorge. He deals with pressure very well and knows that he must pull his season back into the hunt for the big prize. He might not finish first but he will be on the podium.
Any Predictions on Indy Race ?

I predict several spectacular off's. Indy has always produced a large parts bin. Dani and Jorge will need to be careful. Unfortunate since Dani has been strong here with some regularity.

Lorenzo has never done well here except i think it was 2010, i doubt he will podium. Its a honda track, all about power. Ill be there, obviously i hope pedrosa wins but im going to say its a marquez pedrosa 1 2.

predictions? i'd love to be proven wrong but i'd be surprised if we witnessed a thriller. i'm afraid that indy just isn't a track that necessarily produces good motorcycle racing.
+ jorge and dani will need to be extra careful, so i wouldn't be surprised that if vale and marc caught up with them , they would both let them go and settle for points. the interesting question for me is whether the seamless gearbox (if it will be used..??) will bring a obvious improvement so that the yam guys don't lose as much (if anything) under acceleration
1. marquez
2. Pedrosa
3. Rossi
4. Lorenzo
5. Bradl
the rest

well what have the predicion threads produced in the last 5 years? 
cliché guevara
A real limb walker that will not only pick the top 5 but give their finishing order. Anyone else have the nerve to give us the finishing order of the top 3? How about the absolute winner? Remember when you choose that most think of Indy as a track that produces carnage. You need to pick a rider that won't fall down.

Dani has the history at Indy, but what stage of recovery is he. Rossi has not been particularly strong here, and George has just been solid. Marquez has dominated Moto 2 at Indy. I will pick him for the win at Indy, with Pedro 2nd if he is close to being healthy..
Marquez
Pedro
Bradl
Crutchlow
Rossi
Jorge
I will be there, taking my day off today to get the bike ready for a road trip. Probably last Indy, which means last live GP for me for awhile

I surely do want to put MM up front as many of you have but I keep thinking in the back of my mind.......
Is Boy Wonder going to walk under a ladder this week?
Will Kid Demon have a black cat cross his path on the way to Indy?
What if the Wild Child loses his lucky penny?
How long can luck ride with MM?

I'm going to go out on a limb and predict something that nobody else dare predict.
Ben Spies wins
followed by Aleix Espargaro
Third place COLIN EDWARDS!
(of course, this is after Bautista knocks every other rider out into turn 1)

Including Schwantz and the Legend Mr. Rainey. The "luck" part was in race direction repeatedly turning a blind eye and not suspending him for dangerous riding, in addition to having uncle Carmelo in a position to clear pesky rules that ushered him into the best seat in the house.
