The 2020 REV Group Grand Prix Doubleheader is an IndyCar Series event scheduled July 11–12, 2020. It makes up the third and fourth rounds of the series' 2020 season. The race was originally scheduled for June 21, but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the weekend was turned in to a double-header event in an effort to make up for races outright cancelled by the pandemic.[1] The race was also the first event of the 2020 season to allow spectators at the track, with track promoters allowing unrestricted attendance.[2]

Race 1 – July 11

All sessions for race 1 took place on Saturday, July 11.

Qualifying

Qualifying began at 2:15 EST. Due to the event becoming a doubleheader, qualifying featured only 1 round split into two groups. The group that produced the pole sitting driver started in the odd number positions, while the other group took even number positions.
