"It's going to be fast. I'm ready. "I'm pumped," said Alex Palou. "It's a shame that we're not starting like next week. I would be ready to race it."

The Dallas-adjacent street race is actually in Arlington, Texas. The first running is set for March 2026. IndyCar announced on Monday that it's adding yet another major street circuit race for 2026. The latest closed course is in Arlington, a suburb of Dallas most notable as the home of both the Dallas Cowboys and the Texas Rangers.

Three major sporting entities have joined together to create a new street race on the 2026 NTT IndyCar Series schedule — the Grand Prix of Arlington in Dallas/Fort Worth.
