The race is held during the Memorial Day weekend adding further importance to the entire event.
Coca-Cola 600 is famous for its Double Duty event. The schedule is designed in such a way that the Indianapolis 500 and Coca-Cola 600 are held on the same weekend. There have been many drivers in the past who have attempted to take part in Double Duty. It is a tradition that the reigning champion of the Indianapolis 500 won’t compete in the race.
The Coca-Cola 600 is held at the Charlotte Motor Speedway and sponsored by Coca-Cola. The first iteration of Coca-Cola 600 was held in 1960.
