Auto Club Speedway said Tuesday that IndyCar’s drivers plan to hold a day-long test session at the Fontana track on Sept. 24.

The session, which is free and open to the public, is in preparation for the MAVTV 500 on Oct. 19, a night race and the season finale that will determine the champion of the Izod IndyCar Series.

Drivers expected to participate include reigning champion Ryan Hunter-Reay, this year’s Indianapolis 500 winner Tony Kanaan, Dario Franchitti, Marco Andretti, Helio Castroneves and Castroneves’ teammate Will Power, who won last weekend’s race in Sonoma.
