A second Indy 500 enthusiast had the following to add:

"Literal happy tears watching this. Cannot wait to be back (home) again in Indiana."

A third person via the same platform said:

"Chills!"

Here are some of the other reactions:

"It is May!!!! The Lord has blessed me. Cannot wait to be back at the hallowed grounds! I feel the need for speed! Have an awesome month and see you soon, IMS!"

"I’m not crying, you are."

"Goosebumps....I love it."

Josef Newgarden unveiled the 2025 Indy 500 ticket

While the fans have not held back from giving their take on the recent post by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, the ticket for the 2025 Indy 500 was unveiled by Josef Newgarden in the month of March at the Indianapolis International Airport.

During the short but major event, Newgarden sounded extremely upbeat about being presented with the opportunity to reveal the ticket. On that occasion, he had said (via Autoweek):

“It’s very cool to be here in the Indianapolis International Airport. Indiana and Tennessee are my two homes, so the fact we have the Indianapolis 500 in Indiana and the (NTT IndyCar Series) championship finale in Tennessee is a great parallel. To top it all off is seeing this beautiful ticket from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the Indy 500. It’s an incredible-looking ticket."

The two-day open test for the 2025 Indy 500 was recently held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. At the end of the event, it was Newgarden's teammate Scott McLaughlin who set the pace on the timing charts. The latter was followed by Takuma Sato and Will Power.

Josef Newgarden, meanwhile, was able to end his two-day outing in a decent ninth position. However, despite this, he is one of the favorites to once again triumph at the Indianapolis 500.

Other than the already mentioned drivers, reigning IndyCar champion Alex Palou is also expected to be in the running for the win in the 200-lap race.
