Comment

Infineon Raceway will host the sixth round of the Formula DRIFT Series as part of the Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma weekend, Aug. 21-23.

Formula DRIFT’s Round 6: Locked and Loaded at Infineon Raceway has been re-scheduled from Sept. 12 to Aug. 21-22.

“Formula DRIFT continues to bring drifting to the big leagues with the addition of our event to the Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma,” said Jim Liaw, president and co-founder of Formula DRIFT.

“Motorsports fans will be able to experience the 110-plus miles per hour average speeds of open-wheel racing and all the sideways action of Formula DRIFT in one weekend.”

Formula DRIFT drivers will be amongst the biggest stars in IndyCar Series racing, including Helio Castroneves, Danica Patrick, Dario Franchitti, Marco Andretti, Graham Rahal, and more.

Fans will be treated to both drifting and IndyCar Series racing during the Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma weekend.
