Where to watch International 500 snowmobile race 2026: Full schedule, channel, live stream for I-500 events

While NASCAR saw its opening weekend derailed by snow, frigid temperatures are a prerequisite for one of the most unique racing events on the calendar.

The International 500 Snowmobile Race is a test of endurance for man and machine, with racers careening through loop after loop of the one-mile ice track in Sault Sainte Marie, Michigan, to crown a champion. 

It's the 57th edition of the classic winter event, which features multiple days of practice, qualifying and preliminary races leading up to the main event on Saturday. 

Here's how to watch all the frozen action from the comfort of your own home.
