2024 TireRack.com Battle on the Bricks
Media Credential Procedures 

Media/Photo Credentials Open; All Requests Must Be Made by Sept. 6

Media credential requests are being accepted for TireRack.com Battle on the Bricks on Sept. 20-22 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

The TireRack.com Battle on the Bricks returns to IMS with a six-hour endurance race, featuring the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. The weekend also will include the Michelin Pilot Challenge, Lamborghini Super Trofeo North America and Porsche Deluxe Carrera Cup North America series.

The media credential application deadline is Friday, Sept. 6.

Media credentials are for working media only, for the primary purpose of gathering news and content for the timely coverage of the event by a recognized, accredited media outlet. Freelance media (photographers, journalists, etc.) must be on a specific assignment from a recognized media organization. All requests must come from an assigning editor, producer or director. With the expected demand for media credentials, Indianapolis Motor Speedway cannot guarantee all requests will be approved. IMS and IMSA reserve the right of final approval for media credential applications. No one under age 18 will be granted media credentials.

Please review the full Media Credential Terms and Conditions.

Renewal Note: If approved by IMS, login information to renew your outlet's credentials will be emailed directly; please proceed using that information. You do not need to submit a separate request.
