Dover Motor Speedway and Würth USA, a manufacturer and distribution of fastening and assembly materials, announced the sponsorship of the Würth 400 NASCAR Cup Series race.

The Würth 400 NASCAR Cup Series race on Sunday, April 30 is the centerpiece of Dover Motor Speedway’s April 28-30 NASCAR tripleheader weekend, which also includes the A-GAME 200 NASCAR Xfinity Series race  on Saturday, April 29 and the General Tire 125 ARCA Menards Series East race on Friday, April 28.

The No. 12 Ford being driven by Ryan Blaney at the Monster Mile will be sponsored by Würth.

“As a proud partner of Team Penske since 2012, NASCAR and motorsports has been synonymous with Würth for many years,” Thomas O’Neill, executive vice president of the Würth Group, said. “We are ecstatic to be able to partner with Dover Motor Speedway for the upcoming April NASCAR Cup Series race in Delaware. We look forward to bringing an exciting event to the fans and a memorable experience to our business partners. We’ve always had an excellent experience at the Monster Mile and look forward to celebrating in Victory Lane with this year’s Würth 400 winner.” 

The Würth 400 is the Monster Mile’s 105th NASCAR Cup Series race and comes during NASCAR’s 75th anniversary season. Dover Motor Speedway is one of only 10 tracks in the country to host 100 or more NASCAR Cup Series events.
