Television Package - USA
Information for 2019's television package (tape-delayed or live) in the USA hasn't been announced yet. With Motor Trend's streaming package, I would expect either a return to CBS Sports Network or a move to Motor Trend Network (formerly Velocity).

Other Locations

Canada television coverage has yet to be announced, all signs appear that coverage will either return to CBS Sports Network, or a move to Discovery Velocity
