NASCAR Truck Series Heads to Indianapolis in Battle for Final Chase Spot

Stewart Friesen and Tyler Ankrum vie for the last playoff berth as the series runs the 200‑lap, 137.2‑mile event at Lucas Oil Raceway

The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series will roll into Lucas Oil Indianapolis Raceway Park on July 24 for a 200‑lap, 137.2‑mile showdown that carries more than just bragging rights.

With the playoff picture tightening, Stewart Friesen and Tyler Ankrum find themselves locked in a tight battle for the final Chase spot, making the Indiana event a decisive moment for both drivers.

Stage structure and contenders

Chandler Smith, fresh off a victory at North Wilkesboro Speedway, joins a field that also includes Harrison Burton and Nick Sanchez, though neither driver is a full‑time Cup Series regular.

The broadcast will be carried nationally on FS1, and fans can stream the action through FUBO, which currently offers a free trial for new subscribers.

The race will be divided into three stages — 60 laps, another 60 laps and a final 80‑lap sprint — adding a strategic layer that could reshape the points standings.

As the series heads into its concluding stretch, the Indianapolis weekend promises high stakes, competitive racing and a glimpse of the playoff contenders who will shape the championship chase.
