ndyCar just released its television schedule for next year and the race at Pocono Raceway on July 6 is set to be broadcast on the NBC Sports Network.
IndyCar's return to Pocono this past July was televised by ABC, but perhaps the change in format to a 500-mile race (meaning an additional 50 laps and probably another hour of racing) took ABC out of the picture.
Here's IndyCar's complete 2014 TV schedule:
