The Grand Prix of Indianapolis (known as the Angie’s List Grand Prix of Indianapolis for sponsorship reasons)^[1] is an IndyCar Series race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Speedway, Indiana. The race takes place in early May on the combined road course at the Speedway. The inaugural running occurred in 2014.

The race is run on a new, modified layout of the circuit previously used for the Formula One United States Grand Prix as well as theMoto GP motorcycle event.

The Grand Prix serves as a lead-in to the Indianapolis 500. Support races are held, including Indy Lights, Pro Mazda and U.S. F2000.

In 2012, Hulman & Co., the parent company of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, hired Boston Consulting Group to evaluate its business operations.^[2] In their report, one of their suggestions was to explore the possibility of hosting an IndyCar Series race on the road course at Indy.^[3] The road course layout had opened in 2000, and was utilized initially for the United States Grand Prix from 2000-2007. Later, it was used for Moto GP, and Grand Am. Indy cars had never raced on the road course layout, sticking only to the oval circuit for the Indianapolis 500, but their support series, the Indy Lights, had raced there four times. Occasionally Indy cars used the Indianapolis road course as a test facility, since many teams are headquartered in the Indianapolis area. Dan Wheldon notably tested the DW12 chassis at the course in September 2011.

In September 2013, an IndyCar feasibility test was conducted on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway road course.^[4][5] The test yielded positive results. Speculation immediately began to grow about a possible race for 2014, either as a May “doubleheader” event with the Indy 500, or a stand-alone race in the fall. The inaugural race was announced on October 1, 2013, and was scheduled for early May.^[6] The decision was made to utilize the course in a clockwise layout, and to re-work certain parts of the track.
