Which company has been the Indianapolis 500 title sponsor since 2019?

The story behind the answer

Which company has been the Indianapolis 500 title sponsor since 2019? Gainbridge. The event is formally branded the Indianapolis 500 Presented by Gainbridge for sponsorship purposes.

Gainbridge, an online financial-services company and insurance agency, became the race’s presenting sponsor in 2019 under an announced four-year agreement. The partnership replaced PennGrade, which had been the event’s presenting sponsor from 2016 through 2018.

The wording can cause a small terminology trap. Gainbridge is commonly called the title sponsor in quiz questions, but official race materials generally use “presenting sponsor.” In either case, the company’s name appears in the event’s formal branding rather than replacing “Indianapolis 500.”

The agreement was later extended in a multiyear deal announced in 2022. Firestone is associated with the race as its tire supplier, while Marlboro was a former motorsport sponsor; neither is the Indianapolis 500’s presenting sponsor in the Gainbridge era.
