The Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg will continue with IndyCar’s official tire partner as the primary sponsor of the season-opening event through 2028.
“St. Pete is always an exciting event as we reconnect with fans and wave the green flag for a new season of racing,” said Lisa Boggs, Director, Bridgestone Americas Motorsports. “We take great pride in Firestone’s rich history in the sport, and starting each season at the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg has become a big part of that.
