Lottery.com and Sports.com Make Historic Dual Sponsorship Debut at the 109th Running of the Indianapolis 500

Landmark brand positioning catapults both Lottery.com and Sports.com to center stage at “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing” – the Indy500
INDIANAPOLIS, May 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lottery.com Inc. (Nasdaq: LTRY, LTRYW) (“Lottery.com” or “the Company”) and Sports.com proudly announce a historic dual sponsorship activation at this weekend’s Indianapolis 500 — the largest single-day sporting event in the world. This milestone marks the official motorsport debut in the NTT IndyCar Series for both brands and is a defining moment for Lottery.com and Sports.com globally.
This strategic initiative places Callum Ilott, driving the No. 90 car for Prema Racing, under the Lottery.com banner, and Louis Foster, racing the No. 45 car for Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing, under Sports.com. Both drivers, highly regarded British talents, will start from Row 7 and race in front of more than 510,000 live fans and 300 million global viewers, delivering supreme brand visibility and reinforcing the companies’ international reach.
“After two years of restructuring the Company, this moment represents far more than a couple of sponsorships — it’s a global brand relaunch for Lottery.com and a coming out party for Sports.com on one of the most visible platforms in the world, the Indy 500,” said Matthew McGahan, Chairman and CEO of Lottery.com and Sports.com. “This dual-driver partnership at this year’s Indy 500 symbolizes the power of high-impact branding, strategic timing, and visionary alignment. We’re proud to showcase our brands at such an iconic race and excited to deliver long-term shareholder value through such brand awareness initiatives.”
Spotlight on Callum Ilott – Lead Driver for Lottery.com
IndyCar veteran Callum Ilott, a FIA Formula 2 Vice Champion, Le Mans podium finisher, and former Alfa Romeo F1 Reserve Driver, will carry Lottery.com branding into the Indy 500 and throughout a 12-race sponsorship agreement that spans the remainder of the 2025 IndyCar season.
“It’s an honor to have Lottery.com on board as we begin this partnership at the Indy 500,” said Callum Ilott. “This isn’t just a one-race deal — we’re working together through the rest of the 2025 IndyCar season, and I couldn’t be more excited about what we’ll achieve. Lottery.com is building something powerful at the intersection of gaming innovation and sports, and I’m proud to be part of that journey.”
“Callum is no longer a rookie — he’s a proven, consistent force in IndyCar and a name that resonates across the U.S. motorsport landscape,” said Marc Bircham, Director at Sports.com. “He brings a blend of talent, discipline, and digital presence that aligns perfectly with the Lottery.com brand and what we’re building in this next chapter.”
“We’re delighted to welcome Callum to the Lottery.com family as our lead driver for the remainder of the 2025 IndyCar season,” added Matthew McGahan, Chairman and CEO of Lottery.com and Sports.com. “To have our brands featured at the Indy 500 — side-by-side, with two incredible drivers is a landmark for the Company. This is more than sponsorship; it’s the start of something much bigger. We’ve worked hard to bring Lottery.com back and this announcement reflects our belief in world-class partnerships that delivers value for our shareholders.”
