The Indianapolis Motor Speedway, which is located in Indiana, USA, is one of the most iconic and historic racing venues worldwide. It is primarily known for hosting the Indianapolis 500, one of the oldest and most prestigious automobile races globally, alongside the Brickyard 400 NASCAR event. IndyCar also uses the 3.925 km (2.439 miles) road course, which is the layout IMSA sticks to for their 6-hour event.

This short and challenging layout includes two long straights and three sections of corners. Each low-speed section flows smoothly together and requires precision with trajectory and speed, making it a challenging venue where one small mistake can snowball as the lap continues. The road course incorporates a portion of the infield of the oval track, adding complexity and diversity to the circuit layout.
