DHL joins Chip Ganassi Racing as primary sponsor
With The American Legion shifting from Alex Palou’s No. 10 Chip Ganassi Racing Honda to the No. 8 Honda of new teammate Linus Lundqvist for 2024, the team has announced the signing of DHL as the primary sponsor for the Spaniard’s car.
The movement of DHL to CGR comes after the international shipping and logistics company spent more than a decade with Andretti Global. DHL is expected to be featured on Palou’s No. 10 Honda at most, but not all, of the 17 races on the calendar.
“I am extremely proud to welcome DHL to the Chip Ganassi Racing family,” said Chip Ganassi. “It is an honor to partner with an organization that shares our fundamental values of teamwork, growth, responsibility, and the pursuit of excellence. Together, we are committed to embodying those values both on and off the racetrack. I am looking forward to Alex and the No. 10 team defending their 2023 title with DHL on board. The road ahead holds great promise and potential, and I can’t wait to get started.”
Palou earned his second IndyCar title in a three-year span with CGR and enters the new season with an eye on delivering another championship for the team, and the first for DHL since former Andretti driver Ryan Hunter-Reay secured the IndyCar crown in 2012 while wearing the company’s colors.
“It’s super exciting to announce our new partnership with DHL, representing such a successful and widely recognized brand is a true honor,” said Palou. “Their iconic yellow and red colors not only stand out, but they also remind me of my native Spain’s colors. As our team looks back at our remarkable success last year, we are eager to carry that momentum forward and aim for a third title with the support of DHL. I am especially thrilled to hit the ground running alongside the dedicated men and women of our 10-car crew in 2024.”
