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?
If you have a a computer, television, cell phone or even the slightest access to the rest of humanity, you know what weekend it is—Indianapolis 500 weekend. It’s the 100th running of the race, and on top of the coverage schedule, Jalopnik has a team out there bringing you all of the latest and weirdest content there is.
After having a near-death experience at the event last year, James Hinchcliffe sits on the pole for the Indy 500 on Sunday. Outside pole sitter Josef Newgarden probably won’t be far behind, though—his average speed in qualifying was just .060 mph slower than the one Hinchcliffe logged.
But, if you’re familiar with the weekend, you know that the Indy 500 isn’t the only big race going on. Formula One will hold the ever-snazzy Monaco Grand Prix prior to the Indy 500, and the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series run a full 600 miles at Charlotte Motor Speedway to cap off the day.
In addition to those events, both the Superbike World Championship and Lucas Oil Pro Motocross championship will be on. BeIN will have coverage of the Superbike World Championship, and the broadcast schedule listed below is via TVRacer. Also in the live-streaming realm, the Nürburgring 24 Hours will be on YouTube this weekend.
Tape-delayed showings for the weekend include V8 Supercars, Formula DRIFT, NHRA, the Knoxville 410 Nationals, FIA World Rally Championship, Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, FIM X-Trial World Championship, Lucas Oil Off-Road Racing Series, Pirelli World Challenge, GP2 Series, FIM Motocross, Monster Jam and Monster Energy Supercross.
