List of IndyCar Series racetracks

This is a list of racetracks which have hosted IndyCar Series racing.

Since 1996, INDYCAR events have been held on 42 different tracks – 24 ovals, nine road courses, and nine street circuits – spread across five countries: the United States, Japan, Canada, Australia,[note 1] and Brazil.

One new track will be used in the 2020 season: Richmond Raceway which held an Indycar race from 2001 to 2009.

Circuits

Key
Current circuits (for the 2020 season)
  • The "Map" column shows a diagram of the circuit configuration.
  • The "Type" column refers to the type of circuit. An oval is an oval-shaped racing facility. A road course is a permanent motor racetrack, too, but features both left and right turns. A street circuit is composed of temporarily closed-off public roads or airport runways.

Notes

  1. Only non-points-paying exhibition race INDYCAR has held
  2. Abandoned after a fatal crash
  3. Run on a different course layout than the one pictured
  4. Two full-points-paying races held on one weekend, counted as one event
  5. Two half-points-paying races held on one day, counted as one event
gollark: I have a terminal and stuff installed, but there's not much I can do with it.
gollark: I have an e-ink kindle somewhere. Did you know that they run basically everything as root, and that the UI seems to mostly use web technologies for some bizarre reason?
gollark: Indeed. It makes people less likely to try and actually investigate how their system works and treat it as a black box.
gollark: Chromebooks and iPhones and kind of Android phones/tablets (especially on newer versions) use general purpose processors, but with locked bootloaders and limited OSes. Generally to give the company making them a monopoly on app distribution/data gathering and to make DRM schemes "work".
gollark: Or, well, try to.
