Weekend Motorsports Roundup, June 4-5, 2016

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?

Coming off of all the excitement from Indianapolis 500 weekend, we’ve got a full motorsports schedule ahead. The Verizon IndyCar Series will be in Michigan running the Dual in Detroit doubleheader event at Belle Isle Park, and the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar championship will headline alongside them Saturday.

Red Bull Global Rallycross is in Dallas on Saturday, and we got a preview of the course on Friday in a ride along with Chip Ganassi Racing driver Brian Deegan. The race will be the series’ third so far this season, and Volkswagen Andretti Rallycross driver Tanner Foust swept the first two races—a doubleheader in Arizona—a couple of weeks ago in May. GRC isn’t at X Games Austin this year, but some of the Moto X coverage from that event is listed below.

On top of that, NASCAR is at the “tricky triangle” known as Pocono Raceway. Last weekend at the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, Martin Truex Jr. got a long-awaited victory—he’s been the target of some not-so-great luck this season—and broke the record for most miles led in a Sprint Cup Series race, too. His girlfriend was so happy about the win that she apparently shattered her phone while celebrating.

The MotoGP World Championship is on the list as well this weekend, running in Catalonia. The programming schedule below is via beIN, but the only showings we managed to find on our end were of qualification coverage. If you happen to have a schedule at your disposal and can help out with further showtimes, we will be forever grateful.

In the tape-delayed lineup, you’ll be able to catch Pirelli World Challenge, the ARCA Racing Series, Lucas Oil American Sprint Car Series, FIM X-Trial World Championship, FIA World Rally Championship, Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series, Lamborghini Super Trofeo NA, DTM and AMSOIL Arenacross.
