DEAR INDYCAR FANS

Welcome to The Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio Presented by the 2023 Accord Hybrid, a long-standing, fan-favorite race on the NTT INDYCAR SERIES schedule. INDYCAR is committed to delivering a comprehensive fan experience through outstanding entertainment and thrilling competition as our drivers take on all obstacles presented by Mid-Ohio’s famed 2.258-mile road course.

Whether this is your first INDYCAR race weekend or you have been attending this race for years, we are excited for you to witness the spectacle of the sport. A weekend at Mid-Ohio is a special event, so we urge you to take in as much as possible and enjoy it all.

You’ll see close competition on the track from our elite driver lineup as they compete for the most challenging championship in motorsports, the NTT INDYCAR SERIES. It’s unpredictable and you won’t know the winner until the checkered flag falls.

But the series is on the path to being one of the most sustainable racing series in the world. Our partners at Shell have created a 100% Renewable Race Fuel – which debuted earlier this season – and Ohio-based Firestone has a tire made from rubble produced by the sustainable desert shrub guayule as the alternate tire at street circuits.

You should find that the NTT INDYCAR SERIES offers some of the most daring stars in the sport, including reigning series champion Will Power and Indianapolis 500 winner Marcus Ericsson, young stars like Alex Palou, Pato O’Ward, Rinus VeeKay and Colton Herta and record-chasing legends in the making such as Scott Dixon and four-time Indianapolis 500 winner Helio Castroneves.

While in this beautiful location, we invite you to download the INDYCAR App powered by NTT DATA on your smartphone to get behind-the-scenes driver features, live timing and scoring, in-car cameras and more information to help you follow the action. Also, follow the NTT INDYCAR SERIES online at INDYCAR. com, on Facebook, Twitter and TikTok (@INDYCAR), and keep track of future INDYCAR SERIES stars racing in INDY NXT by Firestone at indynxt.com or on Facebook, Twitter and TikTok (@indynxt)

Thank you for your continued support. INDYCAR appreciates your attendance this weekend. We are glad you can experience the speed, action and excitement that defines the series.

Enjoy the weekend!

We’d like to extend a special thank you to American Honda Motor Co., Inc. and its Honda brand for its long-standing, continued support of this event as title sponsor and supporter of Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. Without them, this weekend would not be the success that it is. Our association with Honda now spanning 30 seasons is unprecedented, and we truly appreciate our partnership.

We’d also like to welcome the thousands of associates from Honda’s Ohio manufacturing, supplier and R&D facilities to celebrate Fourth of July weekend, and of course, cheer on the Honda-powered teams and drivers. We’re glad you’re here with us!

Please consider joining us again next weekend for the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series O’Reilly Auto Parts 150 event. We hope that you have a memorable weekend and thank you for supporting Mid-Ohio!
