IndyCar has released the 2027 schedule for its developmental series, INDY NXT By Firestone, a 15-race season spanning 11 venues across North America. Multiple outlets describe the plan as part of the series’ role as a stepping stone toward IndyCar’s top competition.
Coverage agrees that the calendar includes four doubleheader weekends. Motorsport.com adds that the schedule mixes different track types—street circuits, road courses, and ovals—highlighting how the season will test drivers as they progress toward IndyCar. Other reporting focuses more specifically on where the doubleheaders occur, listing Barber, Road America, Mid-Ohio, and Laguna Seca.
Outlets align on the headline elements: the 15-race structure, the number of venues, and the doubleheader format. Differences are mainly in emphasis—some lead with the series’ growth and development pathway, while others foreground the detailed race-structure breakdown and venue-specific information.
