The season continues to get busier. While NASCAR and ARCA will be in Phoenix, INDYCAR starts their season and Formula 1 will be in Saudi Arabia.

Before we start, remember that Daylight Savings Time will begin at 2 a.m. Sunday morning, regardless of your time zone. Before you go to bed Saturday night, make sure to adjust your clocks that need to be manually adjusted up one hour. Unless you’re in places like Phoenix. In which case, don’t do it.

A substantial percentage, but not all, of Arizona does not observe daylight savings time. These places are in Mountain standard time for the full year.
