A big weekend in Indianapolis sees the NASCAR and IndyCar series link up, with the two sharing on the Indy Road Course. Shane van Gisbergen joins Marcus Armstrong, Scott Dixon and Scott McLaughlin in the paddock, as does Hunter McElrea, who is racing in Indy NXT.
Prior to that, van Gisbergen will take to the nearby Indianapolis Raceway Park oval in the Truck Series.
Madeline Stewart (Porsche Sprint Challenge North America), Louis Sharp (British Formula 4) and Zac Stichbury, Marco Giltrap and Ronan Murphy (Porsche Sprint Challenge Australia) will also be flying the New Zealand flag in their respective series.
For all the information you need, including how to watch and at what times, see below.
Shane van Gisbergen, a ‘truck’ and an oval. Need we say more? The Kiwi will compete in the Craftsman Truck Series TSport 200 at Indiana Raceway Park, driving Niece Motorsport’s #41 Chevrolet.
As is the case with NASCAR, no broadcasters in New Zealand own the rights to the Truck Series. Velocity News will provide updates throughout the race.
Shane van Gisbergen returns to NASCAR, joining fellow Supercars star Brodie Kostecki for the Verizon 200 at the Brickyard. Van Gisbergen returns for TrackHouse Racing, driving the same #91 Chevrolet he drove to his historic victory in Chicago last month.
There are no live viewing options in New Zealand, however, CRC Motorsport will show highlights next weekend. Velocity News will provide live updates throughout the race.
