Two ovals alongside road and street courses
World Wide Technology Raceway on 13 June and Milwaukee Mile on 28 August make up the oval race programme. St. Petersburg, Arlington and Detroit are the street rounds. APEX analysis: the varied tracks demand adaptation, while doubleheaders concentrate two opportunities to score points within a short period.
The announced 2027 tests
The group-testing programme includes Sebring on 27–28 January, Mid-Ohio on 28–29 April and Laguna Seca on 2 August. Oval open tests are scheduled at World Wide Technology Raceway on 22 April and Milwaukee on 17 June. These preparation days are separate from the 15 races.
What remains to be confirmed
The organiser says FOX Sports network assignments and broadcast times will follow later. For audiences outside the United States, the announcement identifies INDYCAR LIVE for races, practice and qualifying. Exact times can be followed in the official calendar as they are confirmed.
