Scott Dixon, Scott McLaughlin, Pato O’Ward and 2023 champion Alex Palou hit the gas on the 2024 NTT IndyCar Series season Sunday, March 10, with the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg on NBC/Peacock.
The St. Pete GP, is held on a 1.8-mile, 14-turn circuit through the streets of St. Petersburg, Florida, and a section of runway at Albert Whitted Airport.
“St. Pete really is the best place to kick the season off,” says analyst James Hinchcliffe. “The track is fast, fun, and challenging — a great first test of driver and machine after a long offseason — and the backdrop is unbeatable. The entire city and surrounding area really get behind this race and it creates such a cool atmosphere for fans and competitors.”
A brand-new, made-for-TV exhibition race takes place at The Thermal Club near Palm Springs, California, on NBC/Peacock Sunday, March 24. Drivers compete on the private motorsport club’s three-mile, 19-turn Twin Palms Raceway with the winner claiming a $1 million prize.
The biggest event on the IndyCar calendar, the 108th Indianapolis 500, takes place Sunday, May 26, on its traditional Memorial Day weekend spot.
The entire IndyCar Series season airs on NBC and USA Network, with all races, practices and qualifying also streaming on Peacock. Peacock also has exclusive coverage of July’s Toronto race and the August 31 race at the Milwaukee Mile.
Leigh Diffey has the race call with analysts Townsend Bell and James Hinchcliffe. Marty Snider, Georgia Henneberry and Kevin Lee will provide reports from pit road.
