PPG Renews Partnerships with Indianapolis Motor Speedway, INDYCAR, and Team Penske

PPG (NYSE: PPG) today announced the extension of its partnerships with the Indianapolis Motor Speedway (IMS), INDYCAR®, and Team Penske through 2029. This agreement also designates PPG as the entitlement sponsor of the Brickyard 400 NASCAR® CUP series race at the IMS.

“We are excited to build upon our extensive history with Team Penske, INDYCAR, and IMS,” said Tim Knavish, PPG chairman and chief executive officer. “Expanding and strengthening these relationships highlights the commitment and success we’ve achieved together. I look forward to seeing the PPG name on Team Penske cars and at the Brickyard 400 for years to come.”
