Chip Ganassi Racing launched a new mobile game app, becoming the first team in NASCAR or IndyCar to have done so. "Chip Ganassi Racing Blitz" is available for free to download today on Apple and Android devices, and it was developed by Gamie Studios in conjunction with mobile platform company Skillz, which has an online network where people can play against each other. The game involves a Tetris-like challenge that weaves in different elements of racing plus even team Owner Chip Ganassi's famous catchphrases including his "I Like Winners" hashtag that he uses on social media after one of his drivers wins a race. The app will incorporate contests with prizes that can only be won via the game, sponsor messages and team information from CGR. CGR Senior VP/Marketing & Communications John Olguin: "Partnering with Skillz is an amazing opportunity to engage our fans with immersive digital experiences and share our passion for racing with a new generation of audiences both on and off the track."
