What is The 2022 Indianapolis 500 Collection?

We’re all revved up for the 2022 Indianapolis 500. For more than a century, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway has served as a mecca for professional race car drivers and motorsport enthusiasts alike. Since the very first Indianapolis 500 in 1911, the track has been host to record-breaking speeds, action-packed drama, and the roars of sports fans like no other. This year, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, INDYCAR and Team Penske are teaming up with Autograph to make history once again: we’re bringing the Brickyard to the blockchain for the very first time.

Autograph is incredibly proud to partner with these premier organizations as it looks to add another title to its astounding record, and we couldn’t be more excited to help write the latest chapter of its inspiring legacy.
