Walkinshaw Andretti United unveil new livery following main sponsor loss

By

Walkinshaw Andretti United has unveiled a new livery ahead of the Supercars Championship round at Pukekohe in New Zealand this weekend.

The cars of James Courtney and Scott Pye will feature a Mobil 1 livery, a sponsor to the team for the past 26 years.

The team lost one of its two naming rights sponsors as Mega entered receivership at the end of August.

“Mobil 1 has been a part of this team for 26 years, it’s an incredible relationship which we are privileged to have, and we can’t thank them enough for all that they have done over the journey,” said team owner Ryan Walkinshaw.

“The fact that they have stepped up their support for the Auckland SuperSprint shouldn’t surprise anyone, because it’s that type of support this year, and the other 25 years, that has made them such a fantastic partner of this team.

“Mobil 1 is a part of our DNA and resonates with our fan base, young and old. I’m sure everyone will love the look of this car as much as we do.”
