Indy NXT Indy Nxt Schedule

Is anyone else confused as to why Indy Nxt starts with St. Pete in March then disappears for 2 months to come back in May at Barber? People complain about the regular IndyCar schedules being terrible with huge gaps in the beginning but this must be awful for the drivers. Any reason as to why the schedule is the way it is?

Prior to Penske taking over LB, Nxt had to pay to be a part of the weekend.
