SEGG Media Corporation (NASDAQ: SEGG, LTRYW) has announced that its sponsored drivers, Callum Ilott, Louis Foster, and Seb Murray, will participate in the Grand Prix of Portland this weekend. The event marks the final road course of the 2025 NTT INDYCAR and INDY NXT by Firestone series.
The Portland International Raceway, a 12-turn, 1.964-mile natural road course, offers multiple overtaking zones but is notorious for chaos at Turn 1's 'Festival Curves', making clean execution critical to success. The picturesque track is known for its tactical layout and challenging conditions.
Callum Ilott, now part of PREMA Racing, returns to Portland, where he made his IndyCar debut in 2021 and scored a top-ten finish in 2022. Ilott is looking to convert a series of consistent performances into a standout result. "We’ve been steadily building momentum and Portland presents a great opportunity to pull together a complete weekend. The layout suits drivers who can find rhythm quickly, and the team has made great strides over the past few rounds," said Ilott [1].
Louis Foster, the leading rookie of the 2025 INDYCAR series, enters the final road course of the year holding a firm grip on the Rookie of the Year standings. Foster has an impressive track record at Portland, having won two of the three races he’s contested at the venue during his junior career. "This is a track I love. We’ve been qualifying well all season—now it’s about converting those starts into podium results. Avoiding lap one chaos in Turn 1 will be critical," said Foster, who is supported by Copart and Sports.com, a division of SEGG Media [1].
Seb Murray, fresh off his career-best finish of P5 at Monterey in the INDY NXT series, returns to action with confidence. This weekend marks his debut at Portland. "We’ve shown that we can fight inside the top five. The team’s been working flat out to get us into contention every weekend. I’ve never raced here before, but I’m looking forward to the challenge," said Murray, who is sponsored by Lottery.com and backed by Andretti Global [1].
The weekend schedule includes practice sessions and qualifying on Friday and Saturday, with the race starting at 3:22 PM Eastern Time on Sunday, August 10. The event will be broadcast on FOX and Sky Sports F1.
