Gonna try to watch until Talladega starts. Wish me luck.
Where It Is
St. Petersburg, Florida. The second-largest city in the Tampa Bay metro. The track is allegedly on some city streets and an airport runway, which sounds cool to me, especially if this is like a video game and there’s airplanes taking off and landing midrace.
When It Is
Green flag at 12:42 PM EDT, I’m told (it is really nice to have Jeff Gluck back from paternity leave so I know what’s going on in motorsports).
How to Watch
NBC
Who to Watch
I’m having a terrible time finding IndyCar odds. Is IndyCar dead?
Anyway, according to this tweet, DraftKings has Josef Newgarden as the favorite at +275, polesitter Colton Herta at +300, Patricio O’Ward at +800, Simon Pagenaud at +800, Scott Dixon at +1000, Sébastien Bourdais at +1200, Jack Harvey at +1200, last week’s winner Álex Palou at +1800, Alexander Rossi at +1800, Will Power at +2200, and Rinus VeeKay at +2200.
Goodness.
That was harder than it should’ve been.
