Shell and RCR
In October 2006, Shell Oil Company announced the brand's return to NASCAR through a
multi-year primary partnership of Richard Childress Racing (RCR). Through the
partnership both Shell and Pennzoil brands will be featured on the No. 29 Chevrolet
to be driven by Kevin Harvick in the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series. Shell will also be
the associate sponsor on other RCR cars including the No. 31 Cingular Wireless
Chevrolet driven by Jeff Burton and the No. 07 Jack Daniel's Chevrolet driven by
Clint Bowyer.
The company's technological leadership and its innovative products have helped
position Shell as the "preferred partner" both on and off the track for some of the
auto industry's top companies. The new alliance with RCR and Harvick brings
together the market share leader in fuels and lubricates with a #1 team, which
makes a formidable combination.
Alignment with such a strong organization and a leading driver, like Harvick,
will allow Shell and Pennzoil brands to expand their NASCAR presence while
growing stronger business opportunities.
