Now that he’s in charge of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Roger Penske isn’t wasting any time making changes.
On Wednesday morning, Penske announced the NASCAR Xfinity Series race — the “minor league” of NASCAR — on July 4 this year will be run on the IMS road course, rather than the oval.
The Big Machine Vodka 400, the NASCAR Cup Series race formerly known as just the Brickyard 400, will remain on the IMS oval and be on Sunday, July 5.
The weekend will also include a Florida Georgia Line concert and fireworks.
