Borg-Warner trophy keeps on growing

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The last driver to have his likeness placed on the original trophy was Bobby Rahal following his win in 1986, as all the squares had been filled.

A new base was added in 1987, and it was filled to capacity following Gil de Ferran’s victory in 2003. In 2004, Borg-Warner commissioned a new base that will not be filled to capacity until 2034.
