In my opinion, The Brickyard needs to be on the schedule, for its prestige alone. I’m not saying it’s an extremely entertaining track, but neither are many of the tracks they race at. Winning at Indy I’m sure it’s a bucket list of all the drivers, and they deserve to have the opportunity to get that win.
 
I rank Indy like Dover as having a low chance of an exciting race. My guess is the Truck race has the best chance this weekend of having a pretty decent one if you like thrills and spills. A long shot could be Zilisch and Larson making it interesting in the Xfinity race.

I might need to make my way over. I've been to the Coke 600 & Michigan this year, I can't let those be my only two races this year. I'm thinking about Martinsville as well towards the end of the year

No problem getting a seat. It would be cool if you get to wander around the place.
 

Goodyear Fast Facts — Indianapolis​

After a return to racing on Indianapolis Motor Speedway’s oval last year, NASCAR is back at the Brickyard this weekend. The Goodyear Racing Eagle tire setup ready for the NASCAR Cup Series has been updated compared to 12 months ago.

Cup Series teams will race on the same right side tire as at Indianapolis last year and Pocono a few weeks ago, but the left side tire hasn’t been used at this track before. It’s the same tire raced at Charlotte and Michigan earlier this season, and is designed for more lap-time fall-off.

“Building off last year’s successful return to oval racing at Indianapolis, we have an updated left side tire, which we’ve already seen at other tracks this year,” said Rick Heinrich, Goodyear NASCAR product manager. “Our right side Goodyear Racing Eagle tire was designed for the return to Brickyard last year, and more recently delivered at Pocono.”
