The Indy Racing League has signed a new four-year TV rights deal with ABC/ESPN that will keep the Indianapolis 500 on ABC through 2012, along with four other IndyCar Series races, and has also signed an agreement with Versus, in which the cable sports network will televise at least 13 races per year for the next 10 years.

In addition to televising the IndyCar Series races, Versus will offer pre-race coverage, a one-hour preview show the day before each race that will feature qualification highlights and IndyCar news of that weekend.
