In the media center, @Daniel_SuarezG is making waffles as part of his Choice Hotels sponsorship. He gave me one but then joked it’s $5 because “I don’t have a job right now.” 😆
.@ChoiceHotels is running a waffle paint scheme with Trackhouse this weekend @WWTRaceway, apparently to promote its continental breakfast options, and @Daniel_SuarezG will make waffles for reporters at the track's media center Saturday morning.

NASCAR makes it official with one of the coolest reveal videos of all time (you have to watch this!): First-ever race on an active military base next Father's Day weekend on Navy Base Coronado in San Diego. All three national series.
Indianapolis Motor Speedway is so big that it could fit:
• Churchill Downs
• Yankee Stadium
• Rose Bowl
• Taj Mahal
• The White House
• Liberty Island
• Roman Colosseum
• Vatican City
With 350,000 fans, the Indy 500 is the world's biggest single-day sporting event.
This Memorial Day weekend, Goodyear blimps will fly over Monaco, Indianapolis, and Charlotte for the final “Goodest Day in Motorsports” as all three races align one last time.

This Sunday's Indy 500 will be streamed in Times Square in NYC on @SILVERCASTMedia's "Mega-Zilla" HD screen, in what @FoxSports is saying will be a first for the race, which has been run since 1911.
Las Vegas has released a new report breaking down the economic impact of last year's Formula 1 race.
Here are the highlights:
• Total economic impact of $934 million, making it the largest recurring event hosted in Southern Nevada.
• The average person stayed 3.7 nights in Las Vegas and spent $2,400 (not including their race tickets).
• The race led to 4,500 jobs and $284 million in local salaries and wages.
• The race generated $45 million in state and local tax revenue, with $15 million going to schools across the state.
• Hotel occupancy rates increased from 80% in 2023 to 87% in 2024.
• The 2024 race attracted a crowd of 306,000, with 175,000 fans (57%) coming from out of town.
For context, the $934 million economic impact is comparable to what Las Vegas saw for the Super Bowl in 2024 — the only difference being that the Formula 1 race is an annual event.
