For the first time since 1990, the Penske cars will not have the familiar fluorescent orange and white paint scheme for the upcoming 2010 IZOD IndyCar Series.
Those colors will be replace by black sides, a white center strip and red accents on all three cars, the rear wing end fences being the most distinguishing parts.
The reason for the color switch follows Philip Morris USA/Altria’s decision to discontinue its sponsorship of the team and individual race events.
From now on Verizon Wireless is the primary sponsor of Will Power's car and an associate sponsor on the two other Dallara-Honda to be driven by Ryan Briscoe and Helio Castroneves..
