All Media Personnel: If you have an annual Media card from HSR you DO NOT need to request media credentials. ALL other Media will need to request credentials through this form.

PLEASE READ: All Media credential requests must be made through this form, an email to an individual within our company does not qualify as a request. Media credentials are only issued to journalists from legitimate and recognized news outlets. This includes: newspapers, magazines, news services, racing publications, television and radio. Spouses or significant others may not apply.

Internet-only sites will only be considered if they are original news content providers. Enthusiast and fan websites, will not be approved for a media credential. A social media page does not qualify as proof of a media outlet.

Credentials must be requested with correct/accurate editor contact information, should verification be required. Previous proof of published coverage from within the past year may be requested.

Reasons for Denial: The request is incomplete, is not from an approved media outlet or too many individuals have applied from a single outlet. Requests will automatically be denied from individuals in marketing, public relations, sales, etc. Only working journalists are eligible for media credentials.

PHOTO CREDENTIALS: Due to insurance requirements, photo credentials are extremely limited and only available to qualified photographers. Photo credentials are generally not provided to freelance photographers or stock photo services who are unable to provide an affiliation to a credible and approved media outlet.

Nobody is allowed entrance into the designated photo areas without an issued photo vest.
