Red Bull will serve as the primary sponsor for select NASCAR Cup races for Shane van Gisbergen and be the primary sponsor for 18-year-old Connor Zilisch’s Cup debut in March, Trackhouse Racing announced Thursday.
Red Bull will serve as the primary sponsor on Van Gisbergen’s No. 88 car for five Cup races. Those five races will be: Las Vegas (March 16), Sonoma (July 13), Iowa (August 3), Daytona (August 23) and Kansas (September 28).
A look at some of the key elements to watch in the NASCAR Cup Series this season.
Red Bull has had van Gisbergen as one of its athletes since 2016 when he raced in the Supercars series and won three championships (2016, ’21, ’22).
Zilisch, a development driver for Trackhouse Racing, will race full-time in the Xfinity Series with JR Motorsports this season. He will make his cup debut on March 2 at COTA in the no. 87 car for Trackhouse Racing. Zilisch also has ties to Red Bull. He became a Red Bull athlete last August.
“Welcoming Red Bull back to NASCAR is an incredible chapter in the history of Trackhouse Racing,” Trackhouse founder and owner Justin Marks said in a statement from the team. “Red Bull is one of the most powerful brands in the world and we are honored to partner with such an iconic company.
“Red Bull and Trackhouse share a passion for racing, stories and unforgettable experiences. This is a huge win for our sport and a moment that will resonate with the millions of NASCAR fans around the world. I’m excited for Connor, Shane and every member of Trackhouse to partner with what I consider to be the greatest motorsports company in the world. We are more than honored to welcome Red Bull to the Trackhouse Racing family.”
