Mecum Auctions has joined the Dale Coyne Racing team with the No. 51 Honda driven by rookie Jacob Abel for this weekend’s Sonsio Grand Prix as the Kentuckian’s primary sponsor. The auto auction house will stay with Abel for the rest of the year as an associate for the Indianapolis 500 and the remainder of the events on the IndyCar calendar.

Partnering with Dale Coyne Racing to sponsor Jacob Abel in the Indy 500 is a wonderful extension of our presence here in Indy,” said Dana Mecum. “Supporting young talent like Jacob who represents the future of IndyCar is something I believe in personally. We’re proud to be part of the Greatest Spectacle in Racing and to deepen our ties to the Indianapolis legacy.”
