The NTT IndyCar Series is gearing up for one of its biggest races of the year, the Freedom 250 Grand Prix on the streets of Washington, DC, and a new report suggests that President Donald Trump will take part in a pre-race lap of honor.

The race is set to take place Aug. 23 and will use a 1.7-mile street circuit that will use part of Pennsylvania Avenue and take the field past iconic Washington landmarks, including the US Capitol Building.

According to The New York Post, President Trump's motorcade will make its way around the circuit as part of the festivities leading up to the Grand Prix itself, which is being held to celebrate the nation's 250th anniversary.

"President Trump is ensuring America gets the spectacular birthday it deserves as we celebrate our 250th anniversary," White House spokesman Davis Ingle told OutKick and Fox News Digital in a statement. "The historic IndyCar race set to take place in our Nation’s Capital will be one of the greatest and most iconic races in history. The President will leave his imprint on this historic race in a way that only he can."

President Trump signed an executive order in January directing multiple departments to work with the Washington, DC Mayor's Office to design and construct the circuit. The race was then a late addition to the IndyCar Series' schedule.

Since then, drivers Alex Palou, Felix Rosenqvist and David Malukas have visited the White House to promote the event, with Malukas — driver of Team Penske's No. 12 Chevrolet — taking part in some pit stop practice in front of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

The IndyCar practice and qualifying will take place Saturday, with the race — which recently had its length upped to a very appropriate 250 miles — getting underway Sunday at 1 p.m. ET.

Pre-race coverage will begin at 11:30 a.m. ET on FOX.
