Race Fans: IndyCar Zooms into Arlington in 2026

Imagine the streets of North Texas transformed into a high-speed racetrack! IndyCar is set to hit Arlington in March 2026. The course will share the same roads as last year's World Series parade, but this time with open-wheel race cars zooming at over 180 mph. The Grand Prix of Arlington is a joint effort between the Rangers, Cowboys, and Penske Entertainment. Details are still being finalized, but one thing is clear: this event is going to be huge! The track will wind around AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field, with a 0.9-mile straight that drivers like Álex Palou are already excited about. "It's going to be fast and fun," he said.

IndyCar hasn't been in North Texas since 2023, when races at Texas Motor Speedway were paused due to scheduling issues. Now, they're back with an event that promises to draw massive crowds and create unforgettable moments. Josef Newgarden, a two-time Indy 500 winner, is looking forward to the challenge. "I think the Grand Prix of Arlington will be one of the iconic events," he said.
