LAS VEGAS — The Shell colors will return to the Indianapolis 500 next May, adorning the No. 3 Penske Racing Dallara piloted by three-time Indianapolis winner Helio Castroneves.
Officials from Shell Oil Company and Penske Corporation met with members of the media at the Penske-Wynn Ferrari dealership at the Wynn Las Vegas to unveil both the No. 22 Shell-Pennzoil Dodge that Kurt Busch will pilot throughout the 2011 season and the No. 3 Shell V-Power?-Pennzoil Ultra Dallara/Honda that Castroneves will pilot at the Indianapolis 500.
In April, Shell and Penske Corporation announced a multi-year cross-business alliance to begin with the 2011racing season.
Shell and Pennzoil announced their return to the Indianapolis 500 this evening as they unveiled the No. 3 Shell V-Power?-Pennzoil Ultra Dallara Honda that Castroneves will guide in the centennial celebration of the Memorial Day weekend classic.
“I am very excited to be working with Shell and Pennzoil this season and I’m proud to have the opportunity to drive the beautiful Shell V-Power-Pennzoil Ultra car in the 2011 Indianapolis 500 representing the No. 1 premium gasoline and Pennzoil’s most advanced motor oil in the U.S.,” said Castroneves. “Shell and Pennzoil have such a great history in IndyCar racing and they have certainly had some special moments with Penske Racing at the Indy 500. I hope we can create a little bit more history together this May at Indianapolis.”
