The IndyCar postseason is underway and that means a slew of new challenges.
Here’s the rundown of all of them.
•The 2018 winner’s bracket is a new one to this year’s series. The Indianapolis 500 starts in September and all 18 teams will be competing for eight rounds in a three-month playoff, with the winner advancing to the championship.
•Three of the top eight seeds will make the playoffs by virtue of winning the Indy 500 in January. A total of nine teams will earn the right to represent the two teams leading the championship: Williams-Honda, which would qualify for the race’s four-round playoffs; Dale Coyne Racing, which will compete at Richmond, Calif.; and the only other manufacturer that will qualify for next month’s race at Texas Motor Speedway.

•An additional 20 points are set for winning races in which the team with the most points in its conference wins all eight rounds — with the Indianapolis 500 in November. The conference champion earns the right to advance to the postseason and the playoff series championship.
