Penske inks IZOD IndyCar sponsorship

Team Penske has signed sports clothing company IZOD as a sponsor on all three of its entries for the 2011 IndyCar Series, Penske Racing announced yesterday.

IZOD, which is also title sponsor of the 2011 IndyCar Series, will be on the cars of Helio Castroneves, Will Power and Ryan Briscoe throughout the season and will be the primary sponsor of Briscoe’s No. 6 Dallara/Honda at the Indianapolis 500 in May.

Last week, Penske announced that online retailer Meijer and oil company Shell would join Team Penske as sponsors in the IZOD IndyCar Series next year.
