INDYCAR: The Month of May is Postponed

As the Indy GP will now be run on July 4th as part of a Historic "Double" when IndyCar competes alongside NASCAR over the Brickyard 400 weekend.

And the Mack Daddy 'O IndyCar races, the 104th running of the Indianapolis 500 will now be held at Mother Speedway on August 23rd, instead of it's typical Memorial Day weekend slot. Which seemed Obvious once News came that the Monaco Grand Prix had been Cancelled, which is traditionally run on the exact same day as the Indy 500.
