As Auto123.com revealed last week, Shell Oil Company and Penske Racing unveiled their new NASCAR Sprint Cup and IndyCar Series cars for the 2011 season in Las Vegas on Thursday.
Kurt Busch, the 2004 NASCAR Sprint Cup champion will drive the No. 22 Shell-Pennzoil Dodge.
Three-time Indianapolis 500 race winner Helio Castroneves will be behind the wheel of the No. 3 Shell V-Powered-Pennzoil Ultra Penske Dallara-Honda at the 2011 Indy 500 in May.
Shell/Pennzoil will also be an associate sponsor with IZOD IndyCar Series drivers Castroneves, Will Power and Ryan Briscoe.
Castroneves said he was glad to be racing the car at Indianapolis and hinted Shell could step up its involvement later on.
The two companies have seen success before with two Penske Racing cars winning the Indy 500 while wearing Pennzoil's traditional black and yellow colors.
Shell and Penske announced their latest partnership in April. It will extend beyond racing, too, with Shell and Pennzoil being the official fuel and motor oil supplier for the Penske Corporation.
