INDIANAPOLIS -- May is the month of the year around which the NTT IndyCar Series revolves. It begins with the IndyCar Grand Prix on the grand prix circuit of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Then on Memorial Day Sunday, the cannon fires at 6:00 a.m. (which indicates the gates are open) and over 200,000 people pour into the facility to drink the day away, take in a concert in the Snake Pit and watch the annual running of the Indianapolis 500. Afterwards, the turnaround at Indianapolis begins for the next major event, the Brickyard 400; be it in September this year or on Independence Day weekend in 2020.

Kyle Busch continues to stretch his record with the most XFINITY Series wins as he raced to victory in the My Bariatrics Solutions 300 at Texas Motor Speedway.
On Tuesday, NASCAR announced the 2020 schedule for the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. It's the biggest schedule realignment in over a decade. After sleeping on it overnight, I have some thoughts on the matter.
If you ask anyone about the Coke Zero Sugar 400 or the Coca-Cola Firecracker 250, they immediately visualize a group of stock cars pouring onto the straightaway while the sun sets behind them, casting a deep blue-red hue across the sky.
NASCAR announced on Tuesday the 2020 schedule for the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series. It's the biggest schedule realignment the Cup Series has undergone in over a decade.
