The race was broadcast tape-delayed, albeit in full, on ESPN. The race happened before The Winston, which occured on the same day, but it was aired afterwards. The airing was delayed 15 minutes as the broadcast of the Winston ran longer than anticipated. Thus, the first 15 minutes of the following IMSA LA Times Grand Prix broadcast was preempted.
