Fourth of July Weekend: Lottery.com and Sports.com Drivers Revved Up for Mid-Ohio Challenge

A Media Snippet accompanying this announcement is available by clicking on this link.
LEXINGTON, Ohio, July 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lottery.com Inc. (Nasdaq: LTRY, LTRYW) (“Lottery.com” or “the Company”), a leading technology company transforming the intersection of gaming, sports and entertainment, today announced that the Lottery.com and Sports.com-sponsored driver trio returns to action this weekend for Round Nine of the 2025 NTT INDYCAR SERIES and INDY NXT by Firestone Championships at one of the sport’s most historic and technical venues: the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.
Set in the rolling hills of Ohio, the 13-turn, 2.258-mile permanent road course is known for its flowing layout, blind corners, and punishing precision. Mid-Ohio has long been a proving ground for future champions, and with five races in July, this event marks the beginning of a pivotal stretch for both title contenders and rookies alike.
Louis Foster
Car No. 45 – Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing (INDYCAR)
Sponsored by: Sports.com
After claiming his first career pole position at Road America, Louis Foster heads into RLL’s home race at Mid-Ohio with renewed confidence and focus. The British rookie has impressed with his speed throughout the season, boasting an average starting position of 12.89 across nine races.
“I’m really proud to represent RLL at such an important race for the team,” said Foster. “I won here in Indy NXT in 2023, so it’s a track with good memories for me. There’s nowhere to hide at Mid-Ohio, especially in this level of competition. But if we keep qualifying like we have, and execute races cleanly, there’s no reason we can’t come away with a big result.”
Currently just two points off the lead in the Rookie of the Year standings, Foster sees the intense July schedule as a chance to build momentum and consistency.
Foster added, “Of course, while the qualifying results have been good, the races have been a challenge. There’s so much to get right in INDYCAR. But we’ve been working hard with the team and engineers, and now we’re into a rapid-fire run of races. It’s time to build something.”
Callum Ilott
Car No. XX – PREMA Racing (INDYCAR)
Sponsored by: Lottery.com
Callum Ilott returns to Mid-Ohio looking to carry forward the gains made at Road America, where he secured his best result of the season with P15. The track is a known battleground, famous for its technical challenge, and will feature 90 laps this year—10 more than in 2024.
This marks PREMA Racing’s first visit to Mid-Ohio with the new INDYCAR hybrid power unit, placing extra emphasis on the weekend’s two practice sessions to gather crucial data.
“Mid-Ohio is a real driver’s track—lots of flow, elevation, and little room for error. The team’s still building experience with the hybrid package, so Friday and Saturday are key to getting up to speed,” said Ilott. “Last year the race could be won from anywhere, so it’s about keeping options open and nailing the strategy.”
PREMA made adjustments to its approach following winter changes to Turn Four and the Esses section, and Ilott aims to improve on his personal best result at this circuit.
“Road America showed we’re moving in the right direction. I’m excited to see what we can unlock here with the right setup and clean stints.”
Sebastian Murray
Car No. 2 – Andretti Global (INDY NXT)
Sponsored by: Sports.com
Seb Murray will make his Mid-Ohio debut this weekend with Andretti Cape, coming off the back of a strong Road America performance where he surged from P14 to P11 and was named Jostens’ Biggest Mover. That race marked his best road course finish in Indy NXT so far.
The 2.258-mile circuit will provide another test for the Scottish rookie, with high-speed sections, elevation changes, tight technical corners and a narrow racing ribbon demanding full focus.
As the Indy NXT field tightens heading into a busy July calendar, Murray’s recent form positions him as one to watch in this next phase of the championship.

Lottery.com Closes in on Legal Action Against Coordinated ‘Short and Distort’ Campaign

FORT WORTH, Texas, June 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lottery.com Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRY, LTRYW) (“Lottery.com” or “the Company”), a leading technology company transforming the intersection of gaming, sports and entertainment, today confirmed that it is nearing legal proof of a coordinated and unlawful ‘short and distort’ campaign targeting the Company. In collaboration with its legal counsel, Paul Hastings LLP, the Company is actively pursuing all individuals and entities engaged in market manipulation intended to damage the Company’s share price and reputation.
Christopher Gooding, Independent Director of Lottery.com and a member of the Audit Committee with responsibility for legal affairs, issued the following statement:
“There is no doubt that there is an orchestrated campaign against Lottery. The trading metrics and forensic data we have access to clearly indicate both classic ‘short and distort’ tactics, and more seriously, a significant volume of naked short selling — illegal trades not backed by actual share ownership.
“These actors fall into three categories:
- “Aggressive and embittered insiders, who appear to be leveraging confidential or insider information from their historical relationships with Lottery.com for self-serving purposes. I outlined elements of these insiders to the judge in a Delaware action earlier this year;
- “Professional short-sellers, aided and abetted by complicit brokers — some of whom are actively engineering mechanisms to facilitate, or are willfully ignoring, illegal naked short activity; and
- “Opportunistic traders, influenced by blogs, shorting platforms, and “pay-to-publish” media articles that amplify false and defamatory narratives. These clearly represent the ‘distort’ component of the campaign. Numerous cease-and-desist letters have already been issued.
“Our message to these parties is unequivocal: We know who you are. We are rapidly securing irrefutable legal evidence of your involvement — including the brokers operating both in the U.S. and offshore in jurisdictions such as the Caribbean. We will pursue damages vigorously and refer the evidence to the appropriate regulatory authorities.
“Your days are numbered. We will shut you down, and the financial penalties imposed will far exceed the unlawful profits you have sought to extract from our shareholders.”
Lottery.com reiterates its commitment to protecting shareholder value, market integrity, and the long-term growth of its global operations.

Lottery.com Announces $10 Million Acquisition of GXR World Sports Assets to Power Global Launch of Sports.com Super App

FORT WORTH, Texas, June 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lottery.com Inc. (NASDAQ: LTRY, LTRYW) (“Lottery.com” or “the Company”), a leading technology company transforming the intersection of gaming, sports and entertainment, today announced it is advancing its global expansion with the planned launch of the Sports.com Super App (the “Super App”)—a first-of-its-kind digital destination for sports fans worldwide. The Super App is designed to combine live streaming, social engagement, e-commerce and gamification into a single immersive ecosystem.
The Super App, which is scheduled to launch in select global markets in Q3 2025, will initially focus on soccer and motorsport—two verticals Sports.com has been aggressively expanding into through a series of high-profile sponsorships and strategic initiatives. The Super App will be built on an existing platform development by Galaxy Racer Holdings Limited (“GXR”), The GXR app has achieved more than one million monthly active subscribers organically, demonstrating significant early traction and category-defining potential.
“We’ve spent the past two years building Sports.com around key pillars like soccer and motorsport,” said Mark Bircham, Director of Sports.com. “This acquisition and the launch of the Sports.com Super App is the culmination of a precise strategy to consolidate fragmented sports experiences. Our partnerships with emerging motorsport stars like Callum Ilott, Louis Foster, and Sebastian Murray, along with this technology acquisition sets the stage for an aggressive media expansion that will redefine how fans watch, play and engage with their favorite leagues, teams, and players.”
The Super App will integrate six primary features into a single experience: live streaming, community chat hubs, stats-based social media, e-commerce, real-money and fantasy sports gaming, and sports news. The Super App aims to engage fans across the full lifecycle of the sports experience, tapping into the 4–5 hours of average fan interaction beyond match time each week.
Revenue streams will include premium streaming subscriptions, in-app advertising, merchandising and interactive gamified challenges. Plans are underway to extend into additional sports verticals and incorporate immersive streaming experiences later this year.
To accelerate the development timeline for the Super App, Lottery.com has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to acquire a 51% controlling interest in the sports and technology assets of GXR, valuing the transaction at $10 million pre-money. Subject to due diligence and final agreement, the deal allows Lottery.com to fund the $5.1 million initial investment via cash, stock, or a combination at a fixed $3.00 share price. A $15 million financing commitment has also been pledged by Lottery.com to fuel expansion of the Sports.com Super App.
All GXR unencumbered assets, including its tech stack and user base, will be transferred to a new entity (NewCo), of which Lottery.com will initially own 51%.

Exclusivity has been secured through June 30, 2025, with an automatic 30-day extension, and closing is anticipated on or before August 1, 2025.
“This is a transformational moment for the worldwide sports media ecosystem,” said Paul Roy, Founder and CEO of GXR. “Together with Lottery.com and Sports.com, we are developing the world’s first true sports super app. As global licensing discussions advance, and integration with the Lottery.com family of brands begins, we see a future where fans control their entire live event experience—on the Super App, across all screens, in every corner of the globe.”
