How to watch INDYCAR’s action-packed doubleheader at Iowa Speedway

The NTT INDYCAR SERIES returns to Iowa Speedway this weekend for a doubleheader at the “Fastest Short Track on the Planet.”

With two races adding up to a bevy of championship points on the line, and superstars like Ed Sheeran and Caitlin Clark highlighting festivities, INDYCAR Iowa weekend is quickly becoming a fan-favorite spectacle.

Josef Newgarden and Pato O’Ward will try to defend their race wins at Iowa a season ago in the first oval races on the schedule since the 2023 Indianapolis 500.

Fans in attendance will also enjoy four massive concerts bookending each race. On Saturday, Carrie Underwood will perform the pre-race concert, with Kenny Chesney performing the post-race concert. On Sunday, Zac Brown Band will kick things off, with Ed Sheeran closing out the weekend in Iowa.
