Detroit Grand Prix

Some drivers heading to downtown Detroit for this weekend’s Grand Prix, hope a change of venue brings a change of fortune from their last race, at the famed Indianapolis 500.

Drivers starting their engines to head towards the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel, will need a special pass to avoid drivers starting their engines for the new downtown Detroit Grand Prix.

Organizers predict thousands of people will line the streets of downtown Detroit for this week’s annual Thanksgiving parade, but work will continue for another event — the Detroit Grand Prix.
