IndyCar returning to Milwaukee in 2011
MILWAUKEE (AP) - The IndyCar series is returning to the historic Milwaukee Mile, and series officials are hoping a new event promoter can succeed where others have failed.
IndyCar unveiled its 2011 schedule at the Mile on Friday, including an announcement that the series will return to Milwaukee next June 19 after a one-year absence. Milwaukee has been a fixture on the IndyCar schedule, but the track withdrew from hosting major racing events after the promoter had financial problems and a suitable replacement could not be found.
The venue for next year's IndyCar season finale was not announced Friday. Officials hope to finalize a venue in the next few weeks.
