Jensen Motorsport to unveil new sponsor

Jensen MotorSport is excited to announce its new branding for the 2007 Cooper Tires Presents The Champ Car Atlantic Championship Powered by Mazda season. The veteran Atlantic team is changing its look to a silver / red / black color scheme, which is a major change from the blue / white scheme of recent years.

Race fans can witness the Jensen cars in action for the first time with the new design at the official series test at the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca circuit in Monterey, California on March 7th and 8th. The Jensen team will also be decked out in the new color scheme featuring new crew shirts and team kit.

In the three weeks since the last official series test at MSR Houston, the crew only had time to paint two cars. So race fans can look for Tom Sutherland and Frankie Muniz, respectively, driving the newly styled #2 ClickAway Team Jensen and #13 Chandler Team Jensen race cars.

Jensen MotorSport is also proud to reveal its new team logo, which incorporates the new color and design.

Team owner Eric Jensen states, “We have some terrific new programs for the 2007 season, so we felt now was an ideal time to clearly define our image within the Champ Car community."

Team PR Director Missy Robson states, “We expect considerable media attention in the 2007 season with our Hollywood celebrity driver Frankie Muniz. We are also planning to offer race fans and Frankie Muniz fans the opportunity to purchase team-themed hats and shirts direct from our Jensen MotorSport website. So we included Frankie in the decision about our new team colors, since his image is now so closely linked with Jensen MotorSport."

A couple of recent photos of the new paint scheme are included with this release. The second photo is taken outside of the team’s new shop in Montreal, with a backdrop of the downtown core.
