Read this text. In 2005, twenty-three-year-old Danica Patrick became the first female driver to take the lead in the Indianapolis 500, a famous car race. Is this an appropriate use of an ellipsis? "In 2005, twenty-three-year-old Danica Patrick became the . . . Indianapolis 500, a famous car race."

Yes, the ellipsis is appropriately used in this sentence to indicate that some information has been omitted between "became the" and "Indianapolis 500."
