Unlike last year’s rain-shortened race in the desert at Phoenix International Raceway, this year there will be plenty of sunshine and warm temperatures. Skies will be sunny across Arizona with winds out of the east between 5 to 10 mph. Temperatures will warm into the 80s by the afternoon, and the only drops coming from the sky will be from the celebration in victory lane. Enjoy the race and may your driver make it into the championship.
