Welcome to the Jalopnik Weekend Motorsports Roundup, where we let you know what’s going on in the world of racing, where you can see it, and where you can talk about it all in one convenient place. Where else would you want to spend your weekend?
Oh man, it’s finally here! The greatest race in the history of races is going down this weekend, the Indianapolis 500 mile motor car race! There’s almost nothing better than watching open wheel vroom vrooms go roundy round for a few hours on a Sunday afternoon. I was planning to tick this race off my bucket list this year, but it was postponed and there aren’t any fans allowed inside due to our continuing global pandemic conditions, so scrap that. I’ll just watch it from the safety of my couch, as per usual.
If that’s not enough for you, there’s also IMSA, MotoGP, DTM, NASCAR, Super GT, and World Rallycross to keep your brain busy this weekend.
