The 2026 @BommaritoAuto 500 is officially in the books, and what a night it was!

We want to send a huge thank you to the incredible fans from Southwest Illinois, the Metro East, St. Louis, and the passionate traveling fans of @IndyCar. Your energy, your loyalty, and your willingness to be part of something different is what makes this event so special.

Because let’s be honest, Sunday night racing under the lights isn’t “normal.”
But then again, we’ve never been a normal race track.

This year, the weather threw everything it had at us, and we had to adjust on the fly more than once. But alongside INDYCAR Race Control, we were determined to go the distance and deliver a show worthy of every single one of you.

To those who powered through both stoppages and stayed until the final lap, you are the heart of this event. Thank you for sticking with us.
And in the end, you were rewarded with history.
A new INDYCAR record—268 passes for position.

And that battle at the front? Pure, old-school, short-track, edge-of-your-seat racing.
It didn’t stop there. Our partners in @INDYNXT and the @USACNation Silver Crown Series brought the drama, the intensity, and the action all weekend long. Every race delivered,and you felt it.

We say it all the time: this is a race track owned by and run by real race fans. This isn’t just what we do,it’s what we love. And none of it happens without you showing up and bringing the passion every single year.

For 10 incredible years, you’ve helped us turn this event into something unforgettable. Together, we’re not just hosting races, we’re creating moments and memories that last a lifetime.

And we are just getting started.

We’ll see you back here in 2027. 🌙🔥🏎️

I’ve covered Monaco and I’ve covered Le Mans — but nothing prepared for my first Indy 500 🤯

Some reflections on a week in Indy that brought me such joy and felt like going back to my racing roots, as well as completing my ‘Triple Crown’ 👑

I have some things to say about @ConorDaly22, and I'll get to that. But first, a moment for his mom! Let me tell you, @bsmevents goes Through It when he's on track. But even when all of @IMS is cheering for Conor, she's cheering the loudest. What a special moment. 🫶 @jdouglas4
