IndyCar – XPEL Grand Prix at Road America Presented by AMR 2026
The XPEL Grand Prix at Road America Presented by AMR returns to the 4.048-mile, 14-turn road course on June 21, the series' 41st visit to this Elkhart Lake shrine where nine leaders and record passes defined last year's epic. Born in 1955, Road America embodies American road racing—Carousels sweeping through forests, Kink's blind bravery testing hybrids' poise. Icons like Michael Andretti and Scott Dixon have tamed its length, now layered with energy management for 55-lap sagas blending speed and scenery. As summer solstice's near, it draws 50,000 to lakeside luxury, where camping fuses with corner-carving artistry. This track isn't layout; it's legacy—a proving ground for precision amid elevation dances, fostering rivalries that ripple through the championship. In Wisconsin's verdant embrace, Road America elevates IndyCar: where machines sing through straights, drivers duel in esses, and fans savor the symphony of open-wheel purity under endless blue.
