2019 IMSA Schedule Released

The IMSA released the 2019 WeatherTech SportsCar Championship schedule on Friday. The series will race the same 12 events that it did in 2018, kicking off the season with the 57th annual Rolex 24 at Daytona International Speedway.

2019 IMSA Schedule Released

As we head to the conclusion of the 2018 season, our promoter partners have enjoyed record, or near-record attendance for WeatherTech Championship events, and our 2019 schedule will enable those same promoters to build on that momentum,” said IMSA President Scott Atherton in a release. “IMSA has been fortunate for the past several years to have a schedule that includes the very best road courses and road racing events in North America, and we are thrilled to confirm our return to these same venues in 2019. We have often said that one of the most valuable elements of the merger is the event schedule that resulted – and our 2019 schedule is another reflection of that.”

The series enters it’s 50th season and has released a new logo to commemorate the anniversary. The season also kicks off a new television deal for IMSA. Every race of the WeatherTech SportsCar Championship will be broadcasted exclusively on one of NBC’s networks for each of the next six years. That includes streaming online through the networks app.
