The race weekend has been held since 2007, except for a brief hiatus in 2021 after a change of focus by the owner of the track.

The first race had an opening lap crash that involved David Malukas, Romain Grosjean, Agustin Canapino, and Christian Lundgaard.

On the final lap of the second race, Sting Ray Robb flipped upside down by Alexander Rossi, who ran out of fuel, and also collected Kyle Kirkwood and Ed Carpenter.

Both the Saturday and Sunday races were scheduled to air on NBC and Peacock.

This is the last Iowa double-header on NBC, as the 2025 edition will air on Fox as part of their new IndyCar deal.
