IndyCar Returning to Pocono in 2016

LONG POND, PA (October 27, 2015) – Pocono Raceway will host a Verizon IndyCar Series race, for the fourth consecutive season, in 2016. The ABC Supply 500 race weekend will take place August 20-21. Tickets for all events, taking place during the two-day race weekend, are now available at www.poconoraceway.com.

“We look forward to INDYCAR returning to ‘The Tricky Triangle’ this summer,” said Brandon Igdalsky, Pocono Raceway President and CEO. “Our track was designed for open-wheel cars and, given the 100th running of the Indianapolis 500 in May, it made all the sense to have them back for this historic season of racing. We worked diligently with INDYCAR to make this happen and we both agreed it was important to keep our race on the 2016 schedule. This, coupled with the overwhelming response from teams, drivers and race fans, were all contributing factors to our mutual decision.”
