Bozzano and Jontex sponsor Piquet

Bozzano, the leading men’s healthcare brand and Jontex, the leading brand of condoms in Brazil are the new sponsors of Nelson Piquet Jr and his Kevin Harvick Inc #8 Chevrolet Silverado in the 2011 season NASCAR Truck Series.

The sponsorship comes less than a month after Nelson scored second place in Nashville in late April, the best result of a Brazilian driver in NASCAR. "I am very happy to promote Brazilian brands in the U.S. and hope to contribute to the business of my new sponsors, both in Brazil and abroad." Nelson says.

The season is still early and Piquet is delighted with the new partnerships. "It is pleasing to see that after only five races of the season, two important brands have identified this opportunity and decided to support me. An important part of the plan of this new stage of my career in NASCAR is to educate the public in Brazil about this great sport and demonstrate to the Brazilian business community that the category is an excellent business platform."

"We are delighted to sponsor such a talented driver in the NASCAR Truck Series. We are confident that he will have good performances and progress through the NASCAR categories, " said Gabriela Garcia, Executive Director of Hypermarcas, the company that owns the Bozzano and Jontex brands. "Nelson will be sponsored by two leading brands in the segments in which they operate: Bozzano and Jontex. The logos will be shown on overalls, cap and various parts of the truck. The partnership will run until the end of the 2011 season and we hope to see him show his best performances and achieving victories. "
