In celebration of the fourth annual "Race to Green" program, NASCAR has launched a new commercial about their environmental protection initiative.
The commerical will also make its debut during FOX NASCAR coverage of Sunday's Toyota Owners 400 at Richmond International Raceway (FOX, 12:30 p.m. ET).
"The foundation of NASCAR Green has been fortified by strategic partnerships designed to help reduce our environmental impact, validate green technologies, and educate our fan base," said Brent Dewar, NASCAR chief operating officer. "Race to Green will recognize the partners and key stakeholders that share our passion to champion sustainable practices for the benefit of our country, climate and fans."
American Ethanol and Growth Energy will celebrate six years as an official NASCAR partner, while Mobil 1 is serving as the "Race to Green" initiative partner for the third consecutive year.
