With Olympic fever sweeping the sports world, it’s a quiet weekend in motorsports from Aug. 11 to Aug. 14. Find out which series are still racing in this week’s TV schedule.

With the excitement surrounding the Summer Olympics stealing the headlines from so many other sports, it’s no wonder that this weekend will be a quieter one across the motorsports landscape.

The three premier racing series that gather many of the U.S. fans each weekend – NASCAR’s Sprint Cup Series, the Verizon IndyCar Series, and Formula One – are all off for a much needed summer break.
