NCS Verizon 200 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway Road Course Live Stream Free
The 2023 Verizon 200 at the Brickyard is set to roar into action this Sunday at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway with the green flag slated to wave at 2:30 p.m. ET. Currently, all eyes are on young gun Ty Gibbs. Dubbed the ‘bubble boy’ of the Cup Series, Gibbs finds himself precariously perched at 16th in the NASCAR standings. His journey thus far has been a rollercoaster, and as the countdown to the playoffs ticks on, he is determined to prove himself on the Brickyard.
The stakes are high in Indianapolis. This race can be a game-changer for those still seeking a playoff berth. A win at the Brickyard could catapult a winless driver into the playoffs, and those teetering on the edge, the bubble drivers, have a golden chance to enhance their point tallies.
This will be a great race on Sunday, here is all your tune-in information for the race this weekend.

Preview
THE QUESTIONS: This week’s two biggest debates have focused on the of the Brickyard.
While many drivers have been asked whether the race should continue on the road course that has been used since 2021 or whether the Brickyard should return to the track’s historic 2.5-mile oval, the answer, as usual, has been almost unanimous.
“The oval, just for the prestige, is my preference,” Denny Hamlin said. “I just think that we’re crossing over the (yard of) bricks going the wrong direction. I think once we get back going the right direction, we’ll have another big event.”
The other answer isn’t quite so clear — whether the Cup and IndyCar Series should continue racing on the same weekend in Indianapolis.
“Hopefully it’s something, whether here or somewhere else, that can continue,” former IndyCar driver and television analyst James Hinchcliffe said. “Ultimately, it’s about the fans, right? I think it’s a great opportunity for fans to get to see the two best series in North America run together. As a fan of the sport, I love this weekend.”
NEW PLAN: William Byron started the weekend second in points and with a series-high four victories. But he wasn’t happy when he arrived in town only to learn he’d be starting from the back of the field because his car failed inspection three times. He also will start the race with a drive-thru penalty.
Byron woke up Saturday, though, with a new perspective. “It stinks, but it’s what we got,” he said. “Luckily, we have four wins and a bunch of bonus points to fall back on and we’re not under any pressure to start the race. You’re going to be out there, pretty much by yourself so it’s going to be pretty peaceful. I mean it just feels like I’m in the lead, but I’m not.”
ODDS AND ENDS: Points leader Martin Truex Jr. is a 4/1 favorite, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. Kyle Larson and Denny Hamlin are the next best bets at 6/1.
Here’s a recent AP NASCAR Cup Series story:
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Chase Briscoe grew up dreaming of driving into victory lane at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. He needs it now. With three races left in NASCAR’s regular season, Briscoe finds himself among a large group of drivers in must-win situations at Sunday’s Brickyard 200 to make NASCAR’s 16-driver playoff.
