NORTHBROOK, Ill., March 2, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Endurance Warranty, recognized leader in auto protection since 2006, is proud to extend its presence in motorsport racing as the primary sponsor of Jarett Andretti's No. 18 McLaren in the Pirelli GT4 Americas Sprint class for the 2020 season. Andretti Autosport and Endurance first joined forces in 2019 during Andretti's first run in the GT4 Americas sports car competition. Jarett sparked major interest in 2019 after claiming first place at Watkins Glen International in the No. 18 Endurance McLaren.
"It is great to have such a trusted brand back for the second year of Pirelli GT4 America Racing," said Jarett Andretti. "Last year was a great first year for our team and Endurance's first venture into motorsports. I have enjoyed visiting and getting to know the Endurance team in Chicago and St. Louis. I look forward to winning more trophies for the Endurance team this season and beyond!"
Andretti Autosport has taken the racing world by storm after capturing more than 200 total race wins in various series like the IndyCar, Indy Lights, Indy Pro, and USF2000. Based in Indianapolis, Indiana and led by racing legend Michael Andretti, the Andretti Autosport team participates in the Pirelli GT4 America and several other championships.
"We're excited to continue our partnership with Jarett and the Andretti team for the 2020 season," said Jordan Batt, CEO of Endurance. "We've built significant momentum through our motorsport marketing efforts in 2019, so we're excited to expand on Jarett's success this upcoming season."
In 2019, both Jarett and the winning car were featured in Endurance's national television campaign. Jarett educated auto owners on options to prevent costly auto repairs -- including advantages of the exclusive Endurance Elite Membership. Included with every policy, Endurance Elite delivers valuable benefits like roadside assistance, tire repair and replacement, $250 to spend with program partners, and much more.
In addition to the primary sponsorship of the No. 18 Endurance McLaren, Endurance will also appear on the team's Sprint X car as an associate sponsor of the No. 36 McLaren. The Pirelli GT4 Americas championship will kick off March 6-8 at Circuit of the Americas, which will host races in both the Sprint and Sprint X categories.
