The 2015 United States V-Prix is a Formula Virtual World Championship race that is due to take place at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on 31st January 2016. The race was originally scheduled to be held at the Detroit Street Circuit, though the track was deemed to not be up to standard, with Indianapolis stepping in to host the event.

Enrique Ruiz claimed a record-breaking seventh pole position in a season, and a record-equalling third consecutive pole position during qualifying, but retired from the race with a fuel pump problem, gifting the win to team mate Elroy Wagner. For the second race in a row Rossi got two cars onto the podium, but this time Puccio Giodano let Enzo Domenicalli home.
