2025 IndyCar Long Beach GP schedule: Where to watch and timings

With the 2025 IndyCar season already having two races under the belt, the 27-car grid dawns upon the third fixture on the calendar. The Grand Prix is scheduled for April 13, with the race weekend setting off on Friday, April 11.

In the two races held so far, Alex Palou has led the 27-car grid off with a massive advantage in the championship standings. The reigning champion looks to another win to extend the delta to second place in the interim championship table.

Meanwhile, Team Penske has had a torrid start to the 2025 season. The Mooresville-based squad lost a potential race victory at the season opener due to an early caution. The misfortune continued into the Thermal Club Grand Prix weekend, where the team suffered a three-way knockout in the first qualifying phase.

With all the action that has gone down in March, myriad storylines could further develop at the 2025 Long Beach Grand Prix as teams look for further glory, while some look for their redemption.
