This article takes you through where you can watch & stream the IndyCar Bommarito Automotive Group 500 2023 this weekend.
Indycar is heading into the business end of its season in 2023. Previous rounds include Texas, the Long Beach GP, the Alabama GP, the Indianapolis GP, the world-famous Indy 500, Detroit, Mid-Ohio, Toronto, Iowa and Nashville.
Next up, we head back to the Midwest and Illinois for the Bommarito Automotive Group 500. This is round 15 of 17 of the 2023 IndyCar Season.
This race takes place during the afternoon in the Midwest of America. So, the session times aren't too bad for Europeans to tune in. Here's all the info you need to watch and stream the 2023 IndyCar Bommarito Automotive Group 500.
Where to Watch & Stream IndyCar Bommarito Automotive Group 500 2023
The IndyCar Bommarito Automotive Group 500 has been on and off the calendar since the late 1990s. This oval race has been on the calendar continuously since 2017 now, though.
We're into the business end of the season now, as this is the third to last round on the calendar in 2023. Alex Palou is the heavy favourite for the championship, but could Scott Dixon or Josef Newgarden close the gap?
Kyle Kirkwood got his second win of the season and of his career last time out in Indianapolis.
Previous winners around this track though include Newgarden, who has dominated this event in recent years. The American has won the last three races here and four in total.
Helio Castroneves, Dixon and Will Power are the only other previous winners on the grid, all with a win apiece. The Indy NXT Series will also be in action this weekend.
