Road America Preview: Track Facts, Practice Notes, Silly Season Chatter & Weekend Picks Abby Meyer and Sarah Proctor preview IndyCar’s Road America weekend at Elkhart Lake, discussing the four-mile, 14-turn track, its 55-lap (220.77-mile) race distance, and camping-friendly weather, concessions, and local atmosphere. They note Indy NXT has two races and mention a notable airborne incident. They review key stats: last year’s IndyCar winner Alex Palou, the long-standing IndyCar qualifying lap record by Dario Franchitti (1:39.866 in 2000), and Road America history including frequent winners and the rarity of pole-to-win (only eight drivers). They touch on “silly season” rumors involving drivers like Rinus VeeKay, Scott Dixon, Santino Ferrucci, and Felix Rosenqvist, recap Practice 1 leaders, describe a charity event at Siebkens, highlight special liveries, make race picks (Kirkwood and dark horse Caio Collet), and share where to find them and get stickers.
