The next round of the Idemitsu Mazda MX-5 Cup series is this weekend, and I’m really excited to be back at St. Petersburg. We were last here in the fall of 2020, after the race was postponed from its original date in the spring. It’s always fun to see a full field of MX-5s on a street circuit, and of course we enjoy being a part of the IndyCar weekend. You can get all the live updates at MX-5Cup.com and NBC Sports Gold TrackPass.
