Since 2024, the NTT IndyCar Series has used the Thermal Club IndyCar Grand Prix as its racetrack. Rather than a full-points-paying race, the $1 Million Challenge event at the Thermal Club IndyCar Grand Prix was a non-championship event.
Since the IndyCar Series needed a reliable, warm-weather track, a discussion about the Thermal Club hosting the 2023 preseason test sparked during the 2022 season. In September 2023, following the 2023 test, IndyCar declared that the $1 Million Challenge non-points race would conclude the 2024 season's test. The Thermal Club IndyCar Grand Prix will be a full-points-paying race on the 2025 NTT IndyCar Series schedule, which was confirmed on June 13, 2024.
