Gas Monkey Set to Sponsor Murphy Prototype Oreca

Gas Monkey is poised to make headlines at Le Mans this month, with the popular energy drink and lifestyle brand set to sponsor Murphy Prototype’s LMP2 contender in the French endurance classic.

The familiar green, black and white colors of Gas Monkey Energy are in the process of being applied to the team’s Oreca 03R Nissan, which was spotted Wednesday at Circuit de la Sarthe.

Jeroen Bleekemolen, Marc Goossens and Ben Keating will pilot the entry, with Keating reportedly bringing the backing with him from his IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship Dodge Viper GT3-R program with Riley Motorsports.
