NASCAR at Indianapolis 2024: Start time, TV, streaming, lineup for Brickyard 400
View Date:2025-01-12 13:40:26
NASCAR is back at the Brickyard – and, for that matter, back on the famed oval at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
After spending the past three seasons racing on the iconic speedway’s road course, the Cup Series will once again tackle the oval used for more than 100 years in the Indy 500.
Sunday’s race is not just important for historical reasons – it marks the 30th anniversary of NASCAR’s first Brickyard 400, won by Indiana native Jeff Gordon – it also has important implications for the current season. Winless drivers will have just five more chances, including Sunday, to win a race and punch a ticket into the 2024 playoffs.
Reverting to the oval couldn’t have come at a better time for struggling two-time Cup Series champion Kyle Busch, who has endured a nightmare season. The Richard Childress Racing driver is mired in 18th place in the standings and in danger of ending an incredible streak of at least one win every season since 2005. Busch is one of just two active Cup drivers (along with Brad Keselowski) who has won the Brickyard 400, and he’s done it twice – in 2015 and 2016 – while scoring four additional victories on the IMS oval in the NASCAR Xfinity Series.
Can Busch recapture his form at Indy? Here’s all the information you need to get ready for Sunday’s Brickyard 400:
