IndyCar will not return to Baltimore for a race in 2014, the US-based open-wheel series announced on Friday, just 12 days after Frenchman Simon Pagenaud won the final title.
The series used a 2.04-mile (3.3km) street course along the downtown area around the ballpark that is home to Major League Baseball's Baltimore Orioles and staged the event on the US Labor Day weekend.
"After a successful visit to Baltimore, which included record attendance, we are disappointed that our schedules will not align to host an event in 2014," said Mark Miles, chief executive officer of IndyCar's parent company.
"This was simply a matter of trying to find the best date that worked for all parties, since Labor Day weekend was not an option in 2014.
"We continue to finalise our 2014 schedule and anticipate announcing it prior to the end of our 2013 season."
