The NTT INDYCAR SERIES has revealed the 2026 schedule. The revamped race lineup features two brand new venues and the return of an iconic circuit from the past alongside schedule mainstays.

The Arrow McLaren IndyCar Team will compete in 17 races across North America, inclusive of five street courses, six oval races and six road courses. 

The 2026 season will begin with a surge of action with the annual kickoff race in St. Petersburg (March 1), followed by the return to Phoenix Raceway (March 7) and then the new Arlington street race (March 15). The series heads to the Brickyard on May 24 for the 110th Running of the Indianapolis 500, and the season finale moves to Laguna Seca on September 6.
