Next up we head to the home of the IndyCar Series, as we return to Indianapolis. The Indianapolis Grand Prix begins the Month of May celebrations that culminate in the world-famous Indy 500.
The Indianapolis Grand Prix takes place on the "road circuit" version of the Brickyard that you may remember from series like MotoGP.
This race takes place during the day in the Midwest, 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 IndyCar Grand Prix of Indianapolis 2023.
Where to watch & stream the IndyCar Grand Prix of Indianapolis 2023
The Grand Prix of Indianapolis is a relative newcomer to the calendar, having first been included in 2014. The Indianapolis GP gets the Month of May started, as IndyCar warms up ahead of one of the biggest races in the world.
The banks of the famous oval combined with a tight and twisty infield section makes this a nightmare for engineers to perfect the cars' setups. The Indy NXT series will also be in action this weekend at Indianapolis.
When it comes to the most successful drivers at the Indy GP, there are a few familiar names that have won the most races. Both Simon Pagenaud and Will Power have won a trio of races here in May.
Rinus Veekay won his only IndyCar race to date here in 2021, with Colton Herta claiming victory in 2022.
There have also been additional races here between 2020 and 2022 to help bulk out the calendar. Scott Dixon and Alex Rossi join the previous winners club if you include these encounters as well.
