On January 14th 2019, the first truck of Indy fuel was loaded out of MPC’s Catlettsburg refinery. “We are excited to be a part of this project,” said Sheila Fraley, Catlettsburg refinery community relations representative. “There were several people who worked on this project and we look forward to watching IndyCar races in 2019. The employees of the Catlettsburg refinery are proud, knowing they are the only refinery fueling the race cars participating.”
