The PEAK Antifreeze & Motor Oil Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma County is an Indy Racing League IndyCar Series race held at Infineon Raceway in Sonoma, California.

The USAC Championship Car circuit raced at the circuit in 1970. In 2005, American open wheel racing returned to the circuit with an Indycar Series event.

The 2006 event saw rookie Marco Andretti win his first career race. It marked the record youngest winner (19 years, 5 months, 14 days) of a major open-wheel racing event at the time.

The IndyCar Series race utilizes a modified 2.2-mile version of the road course, the same used by AMA Superbike. One that is longer than the NASCAR layout, but shorter that the full original 2.52-mile course.
