Nashville hosts the season finale for the first time, with the event moving from the streets around Nissan Stadium to the Nashville Superspeedway. The 1.33-mile concrete oval hosted an IndyCar Series race from 2001-08, with three drivers in Sunday’s field having run in the 2008 race — Power, Scott Dixon and Graham Rahal.

Power needs to finish third or better to have a chance at his third series championship. Palou must score 21 points to clinch the title but a poor qualifying effort leaves him starting 24th on the grid. He qualified 15th and then moved back nine spots because of an unapproved engine change. Power’s clearest path to the title is to win, lead the most laps and have Palou finish no better than 10th.

Kyle Kirkwood won the Music City Grand Prix in August 2023, he second win last year, finishing 0.7633 seconds better than Scott McLaughlin. Kirkwood starts on the pole on Sunday with Josef Newgarden also on the front row. Power starts from the fourth position, outside of Felix Rosenqvist.
