(Radio Iowa) — The Iowa Speedway will be hosting an IndyCar Series doubleheader in July as part of a revamped scheduled. The July 17th and 18th races will be under the lights. Mark Miles is president of Penske Entertainment which operates the series.

The Iowa Speedway is one of two venues to be awarded two racers and Miles calls it an efficient way to rework the schedule.

Miles says all sports are working with their broadcast partners in hopes of putting together a new schedule.

The first IndyCar race is scheduled for June sixth at Texas and Miles says there are no plans to run races without fans.
