McLaughlin to run Pirtek livery in Indy iRacing event

McLaughlin will run car #40 with Pirtek livery

Scott McLaughlin will run a celebratory Pirtek livery in the IndyCar iRacing Challenge finale this Saturday afternoon.

McLaughlin will run car #40 on his virtual Dallara IR-18 in the IndyCar iRacing Challenge, which concludes on May 3rd with the Indianapolis 175 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

“We received some terrific feedback from Marcos Ambrose’s participation in last night’s Eseries event which was a fitting way to shine some light onto Pirtek’s 40th anniversary celebration," said Pirtek CEO Stephen Dutton.

“It is great that we can extend that with Scott (McLaughlin) campaigning the Team Penske Indycar with the Pirtek livery and the #40 this weekend.

“Our 40th anniversary celebrations have been a little subdued because of the Coronavirus situation, but these few activities have had our franchise family smiling.

“To have Brad Keselowski in a Pirtek-backed NASCAR this weekend is an added bonus."

Pirtek will also back Team Penske pilot Brad Keselowski in the eNASCAR iRacing Pro Invitational Series.
