Team Penske announced today that it has extended its
partnership with Alliance Truck Parts, building on the relationship between the
two transportation-based organizations that began in 2010.
Under the new multi-year agreement, Alliance Truck Parts will
continue to be a primary sponsor of the No. 2 Team Penske Ford Fusion driven by
2012 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion Brad Keselowski. The 2015 season will
mark the second consecutive year that ATP, a provider of heavy duty truck parts
for the commercial transportation industry, will be featured in the Sprint Cup
Series.
Alliance Truck Parts will back the bright yellow Ford driven
by Keselowski in eight races as a primary sponsor each season, and as an
associate sponsor for the balance of the NSCS schedule.
“Team Penske is excited to build on our relationship with
Alliance Truck Parts,” said team owner Roger Penske. “We have worked closely
with ATP as one of our key partners in NASCAR to build value for both of our
organizations. As we continue to enhance our business relationship, we look
forward to experiencing more success with Alliance Truck Parts on the track as
well.”
“This extension is a big deal to all of us at Team Penske,”
said Keselowski. “Alliance Truck Parts is a great brand – I actually own a few
Freightliner trucks and we use Alliance Truck Parts to maintain them. We
appreciate all they do for the Team Penske organization and I’m looking forward
to continuing our success with ATP in the future.”
Alliance Truck Parts made its debut with Team Penske at the
2010 NASCAR Nationwide Series season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. The
partnership expanded in the 2011 Nationwide Series when Alliance Truck Parts
was a partial season primary sponsor with the bond with ATP grew to include a
full-season Nationwide Series primary sponsorship in each of the following two
seasons. Alliance Truck Parts made its debut in the Sprint Cup Series this year
and 2015 will mark its second consecutive year as an NSCS sponsor with Team
Penske.
“There is a special
excitement when the No.2 Alliance Truck Parts Ford Fusion is featured on
track,” said Friedrich Baumann, senior vice president, Daimler Trucks North
America - Aftermarket. “Sundays have a new meaning for our customers and our
presence in NASCAR has allowed them to connect with Alliance Truck Parts in a
very special way. Alliance Truck Parts is proud to be partnered with a champion
both on and off the track. We look forward to continued success with Team
Penske.”
