RALEIGH, N.C. \u2014 Advance Auto Parts, Inc., a leading automotive aftermarket parts provider in North America that serves both professional installers and do-it-yourself customers, announced that Team Penske\u2019s No. 12 Ford Mustang piloted by Ryan Blaney will feature the full Advance paint scheme at four NASCAR Cup Series races this season.<\/p>\n
Advance branding will be on full display both on the No. 12 car and Team Penske\u2019s crew fire suits at The Cook Out 400 at Martinsville Speedway March 29, The Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway May 31, The Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway Aug. 29, and The Yellawood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway Oct. 25.<\/p>\n
Blaney also will make multiple appearances and sign autographs at local Advance stores as part of race week activities.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Advance Auto Parts-Team Penske relationship, now in its seventh year, is an important part of Advance\u2019s marketing and sponsorship strategy,\u201d said Bruce Starnes, executive vice president and chief merchant at Advance Auto Parts. \u201cAdvance is in the midst of a comeback and it\u2019s inspiring for our team members, partners and customers to see a champion like Ryan pilot the Advance No. 12 car.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s hard to believe Advance and Team Penske are already in our seventh season together on the No. 12 Team Penske Ford,\u201d Blaney said. \u201cAdvance has such an incredible culture around racing and auto parts and truly values its customers just like we value our fans. I\u2019m fortunate to be a part of it and looking forward to another year partnering.\u201d<\/p>\n
The last time Blaney drove the Advance No. 12 car he won the Coke Zero Sugar 400 at Daytona International Speedway in August 2025, in an epic sprint from 13th place in the final two laps. Advance\u2019s four races with Blaney come as Team Penske is celebrating its 60th\u00a0anniversary season this year.<\/p>\n
