“That Goes a Long Way With Tony and I Both” – Chase Briscoe Reveals the Key Factor in Choosing Mahindra Sponsorship

NASCAR Cup Series driver Chase Briscoe recently got a new sponsor for his No.14 Ford Mustang. The Stewart-Haas Racing team announced Mahindra Tractors as an anchor sponsor for next year’s NASCAR season.

In the press conference, the driver expressed his happiness with the fact that his sponsor has dealerships that are family-owned. He said, “Every single dealer is family-owned. And I think that goes a long way with Tony and I both and just our upbringing and the humble beginnings. To have a family-owned backed business essentially is special.”

Briscoe explained why Mahindra Tractors is the right sponsor for his team.

“I think it’s a great fit for the (No.) 14 car. And Viren (Popoli) was talking about how it’s the ‘Official Tractor of Tough’ and the perseverance and the grit. I feel like that fits the 14 team so well. So, I feel like it’s a perfect fit.”

“I’m excited for everybody to see the car and I definitely can’t wait for 2022.”

We both want to continue to grow and perform – me on the racetrack and Mahindra in the marketplace.”

“It’s a true partnership that’s valuable to both of us.”
