There are a few intriguing puzzles in the 2019 IndyCar schedule. First, Barber's road course race fills in the gap. Next, Indy Lights make a return to Belle Isle. Remember that the Indianapolis 500 has long-run defenses.
IndyCar’s Barber road course race fills the gap
Barber Road course in Virginia, fills the hole left by the cancellations for the Indianapolis 500. IndyCar switched its season-opening event to Barber the week following the cancellation of the Indianapolis 500. Indy Lights subsequently filled the 2.3 mile road course.
IndyCar's Barber road-course race would fill in a gap in the schedule between the straight 500 and the second race in the first half of August. However, the two-race doubleheader would create a busy stretch of three to four weeks in the schedule. A doubleheader is possible and could be broadcast by network television.
Nashville street race
Five races remain in the season, with Sunday's race promising to be the most thrilling. Drivers who can run fast on the street track will contest the race, which should make for an exciting race. However, there are also a number of drivers who know how to run fast on the road course. Chris Buescher is one such driver. He has performed well on the roads this year. In particular, he has placed in the top six four times consecutively. He hopes to have a strong showing at Indianapolis and make it into the playoffs.
The road course was completely changed in October 2013 to improve the race course's competitiveness, as well as make it easier to navigate for Indy cars and fans. The new course features more fast corners and the first corner was made a 90 degree turn with a raised curb. This new turn allows for a new series in fast turns around the Museum.
Indianapolis 500's long run defenses
Indianapolis is a run-first offense with a solid passing attack. Jonathan Taylor only had nine carries last Sunday. However, he gained 54 total rushing yards, including 2 21-yard runs. Jonathan Taylor completed his day with seven runs for 12 yards and three no-gain snuffs.
