STAMFORD, Conn. – April 25, 2024 – The 2024 NTT INDYCAR SERIES season continues this week with live coverage of the Children’s of Alabama Indy Grand Prix from Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Ala., this Sunday at 1 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock. This race marks the first of five consecutive races airing on NBC in an action-packed month of May. Peacock is the streaming home of the NTT INDYCAR SERIES, presenting all races, qualifying and practices this season.

On Wednesday, INDYCAR disqualified Josef Newgarden and Scott McLaughlin for violating its “Push to Pass” regulations during last month’s Grand Prix of St. Petersburg, with Pato O’Ward being named the new winner of the March 10 season opener. Will Power was also docked 10 points. NBC Sports will present full coverage of this story throughout the weekend.

As a result, last week’s Grand Prix of Long Beach winner Scott Dixon (79 pts) now holds a slim two-point lead in the 2024 points standings over Colton Herta (77 pts), followed by reigning and two-time INDYCAR champion Alex Palou (67 pts) and O’Ward (64 pts).

Scott McLaughlin won last year’s Children’s of Alabama Indy Grand Prix, while Newgarden is a three-time winner of the event.

Live coverage of qualifying and practice sessions from Barber Motorsports Park will stream exclusively on Peacock from tomorrow-Sunday. The second race of the INDY NXT by Firestone season will also be presented from Barber Motorsports Park on Sunday at 11:05 a.m. ET on Peacock.
