DETROIT (AP) — CBS Sports is not using the Superstar Racing Experience as a soft opening for more motorsports, and chairman Sean McManus ruled out IndyCar joining the network next year. “I can tell you that we will not have IndyCar next year,” McManus told The Associated Press. “Our commitment right now is to SRX and our programming schedule really precludes us from picking up a series like the IndyCar Series. Some wondered if it was a test run toward a return of motorsports to CBS, the network that in 1960 was the first to air NASCAR races. CBS gets back into the racing game the next six weeks with SRX, but McManus said there are no plans for other racing series at the network.
