2027 IndyCar Series championship
The 2026 season is over. Until the 2027 calendar and entry lists are out, this plays the 2026 calendar again a year on (18 events, the same points) 10,000 times, with the latest field and today's ratings. Each simulated season lets everyone's pace drift more than it would mid-season, because a winter changes teams and cars.
