Driver Highlights

Louis Foster (“Fast Foster”) — Rookie of the Year

Rahal Letterman Lanigan’s Louis Foster capped his rookie season by winning the prestigious 2025 NTT INDYCAR Rookie of the Year title. Starting 24th on the grid, Foster was involved in mid-race contact and received a blocking penalty, which forced him to manage damage and run laps down. Despite the setbacks, Foster secured the points needed to clinch the honor.

Foster’s No. 45 car ran in a striking black and gold livery, with the Sports.com logo prominently displayed on the end plates of the front wing. The branding stood out on national FOX television coverage, showcasing SEGG’s global presence.

“One of the main goals we had this year was to win this title,” said Foster. “The RLL team have been incredible all year and I owe this to them and everyone supporting me on the path to the INDYCAR series. I’ve learned a huge amount, and I’m excited to reset for 2026 with more experience and determination.”

Callum Ilott (“The Comeback Kid”) — 4th Top-10 Finish

PREMA Racing’s Callum Ilott overcame a grid penalty carried into Nashville to secure P9, his fourth top-10 finish of the season. Calm and precise throughout the 225-lap race, Ilott once again showcased his trademark race craft — widely regarded as among the best on the grid.

“It was a good race,” Ilott said. “We stabilised mid-pack and made a strong push on the Alternates late. The crew did a great job in the pits and Chevrolet delivered on the engine. It’s a positive way to finish our first season together.”

Seb Murray — Building Momentum for 2026

Andretti Cape Indy NXT rookie Seb Murray wrapped up his debut season with a P11 finish at Nashville, ending the year 13th in the championship standings. Murray ran a refreshed livery that integrated SEGG Media’s brands: Lottery.com across the sidepods, Sports.com on the rear wing, and additional Lottery.com placements along the midsection of the car.

“Overall it was a solid weekend and a good rebound from Milwaukee,” said Murray. “We had the pace for a top 10, but a couple of small mistakes cost us. I’m grateful to Andretti and to all of my partners — this season has been about learning and laying foundations for 2026.”

Executive Reflections

“A huge thank you goes to our three drivers — Louis Foster, Callum Ilott, and Seb Murray. We’ve enjoyed working with them throughout 2025 and look forward to continuing these relationships into 2026.

As an American company listed on the most prestigious exchange in the world, it is important to our shareholders and investors that our brands are front and center in America’s finest sports. INDYCAR has proven to be the perfect stage for that.” — Matthew McGahan, Chairman, President & CEO of SEGG Media

“As the 2025 INDYCAR season draws to a close, it has exceeded our expectations in brand exposure and opened the door to new connections and potential joint ventures for 2026. We’ve taken a hands-on approach with our drivers, attending as many races as possible to encourage, develop, and expand our presence in INDYCAR. We are excited to soon share with shareholders and investors our plans for 2026, which include the launch of the Elite Driver and Sponsorship Program.” — Marc Bircham, Main Board Director of SEGG Media and Head of Sports.com Acquisitions
