Chip Ganassi Racing Lands Credit Card Processor First Data As Sponsor

Chip Ganassi Racing this morning is expected to unveil a new sponsorship deal with credit card processor First Data, according to sources. Ganassi has scheduled an 11:00am ET press conference at the NASCAR HOF to unveil the deal. Terms were unclear as of presstime, but the company is expected to serve as sponsor for a handful of races this year on Kyle Larson’s No. 42 Chevy in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series, with the team hoping to grow that in '18. The deal has B2B connections as First Data does work with Credit One Bank, one of Larson’s primary sponsors.
