IndyCar setup sheet: Grand Prix of Portland
The BITNILE.com Grand Prix, Race 16 of the 2023 NTT IndyCar Series, will take place at Portland International Raceway in Portland, Oregon on Sunday, September 3 at 3:00pm ET. This will be the 29th race on the 1.964-mile natural-terrain road course. The track layout remains largely unchanged, requiring low drag on the long pit straight and back straight, with handling dynamics playing a crucial role on the curves. Honda-powered teams have historically performed well at this track, but the advantage may be less apparent this year due to the nature of the final turn and corner sequence. The championship battle between Chip Ganassi Racing’s Scott Dixon and points leader Alex Palou adds an extra level of excitement to the race.
