Yahoo Autos RLL reveals Fittipaldi Indy 500 livery
Pietro Fittipaldi’s Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing entry for the Indianapolis 500 and Detroit Grand Prix will carry primary sponsorship from 5-Hour Energy.
“We’ve been incredibly impressed by the RLL team in their preparation and professionalism and wanted to quickly expand our collaboration beyond the associate sponsorship,” said company president Jeff Sigouin. “Therefore, we’ve become the primary sponsor for the longest and biggest race of the year — the Indy 500 — and of our hometown race in Detroit. Both events require focus, energy and stamina to win… and those attributes are right up our alley.”
In a week where the colors red, yellow, and black have featured prominently on new IndyCar liveries from Chip Ganassi Racing with Alex Palou’s car and Sting Ray Robb’s A.J. Foyt Racing entry, Fittipaldi’s No. 30 Honda continues the trend with its 5-Hour design.
“I’m very excited to have 5-hour Energy as my primary sponsor for the legendary Indy 500 and for their home race, the Detroit Grand Prix,” Fittipaldi said. “The 5-hour Energy Honda is one of the best-looking race cars I have ever driven and looks extremely fast. I’m looking forward to chasing great results on track with them all season and especially at the iconic Indy 500 and their home race in Motor City.”
