IndyCar confirms 2025 calendar with championship round at Thermal Club · RaceFans

Start, IndyCar Thermal Challenge, 2024

IndyCar has revealed the calendar for its 2025 season and confirmed coverage of the series will move to Fox in the USA.

The new calendar will feature 17 races, the same as this year. However Milwaukee, which returns to the championship this year with a double-header event, will only hold a single race next year.

A new points-scoring race has been added at The Thermal Club in California. The facility held a non-championship round in March this year billed as the “$1 Million Challenge”, which was won by Alex Palou.

IndyCar’s 2025 season will finish in August, over two weeks earlier than it does this year. As this year, the final race will be held at Nashville Superspeedway, which replaced the city’s street track on the series’ calendar this year.

The series also announced Fox Sports will replace NBC as its broadcaster in the USA from next year. IndyCar CEO Mark Miles said the new deal “represents unrivalled exposure and provides an unparalleled growth opportunity for the most competitive and entertaining motorsport on the planet.

“Fox Sports is a fully committed partner, ready to bring engaging and technically innovative coverage to millions of fans across the country while also promoting IndyCar thoroughly across all its platforms.”
