IndyCar’s plan to feature the miniature Drivers’ Eye camera inside the helmet during its first season on FOX is moving forward, with a focus on four specific races instead of the full 17-race season. The series and FOX Sports are currently aiming to utilize the Drivers’ Eye cameras in four events, each with four different drivers. This decision stems from the desire to first complete a few races under the new broadcast partnership before implementing this new feature. The video system may undergo testing during a practice session at the Acura Long Beach Grand Prix in April with one driver, setting the stage for its live debut post-Long Beach, potentially at Barber Motorsports Park or the Indianapolis Grand Prix as a prelude to the iconic Indianapolis 500 in May.
