INDYCAR officials have announced the NTT IndyCar Series season opener at Barber Motorsports Park has been rescheduled from Sunday, April 11, to Sunday, April 18. 

With the move, the Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama presented by AmFirst will be featured live on air on the NBC network. A record of nine events will air on NBC this season.

“The schedule changes we’ve had, while partially prompted by ongoing pandemic conditions, give us a powerful start to the 2021 season,” Penske Entertainment Corp. President and CEO Mark Miles said. “With six of our first eight races on network television and all in a more compact timeline, it’s an enormous opportunity to drive even more momentum as we deliver our exciting brand of racing to our fans.”
