Welcome to the Jalopnik Weekend Motorsports Roundup, where we let you know what’s going on in the world of racing, how to watch this weekend’s IndyCar, Formula 1, and NASCAR racing, and where you can talk about it, all in one convenient place. Where else would you want to spend your weekend?
The best weekend in racing is back! This Memorial Day weekend will once again play host to , , NASCAR’s Coca-Cola 600, and endurance racing’s Nürburgring 24. I don’t know about you, but I’m stoked.
Myself, I’m already at the Indy 500, but I think I have the perfect race-watching strategy figured out: I show up to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway when gates open, and I watch Monaco in the Pagoda plaza. It’s a nice transition into the pageantry of the Indy 500, which I’ll obviously see from my seats. Then, when the race is over, I head to a bar to watch the Coke 600 until traffic clears and I head out to wherever I’m staying.
It’s a pretty solid plan, and I don’t see any reason to change it this year. How are you all going to be watching?
Is there anything we’ve missed? Let us know in the comments!
