Stormy weather and tornado warnings has caused IndyCar to reschedule the weekend after it was forced to cancel sessions on Friday.
The updated schedule for this weekend’s The Synk 275 and Farm to Finish 275 at Iowa Speedway was announced by the IndyCar Series due to stormy weather and tornado warnings threatening the track.
Tornado warnings interrupted the first practice session of the week, prompting drivers and team personnel to seek shelter immediately, halting all sessions.
No wet running is permitted at ovals, resulting in no action returning to the track, and the weather necessitated IndyCar to adjust the timings of events.
The Synk 275 is now scheduled for 21:00 GMT, while the Farm to Finish 275 will commence at 17:00 GMT as per IndyCar’s announcement.
Qualifying will now take place at 17:30 GMT, with drivers completing two laps to set the grids for both races held over the weekend at Iowa Speedway.
