Michael McDowell will be sponsored by Stage Front Tickets in multiple races in 2022, Front Row Motorsports announced Feb. 9.
McDowell’s No. 34 in the NASCAR Cup Series will first carry Stage Front sponsorship at Auto Club Speedway.
“I think we have really developed opportunities and marketing platforms for new partners to enter the sport the past few seasons,” McDowell said in a team release. “Stage Front is a fitting example. We can welcome them at two major events on FOX and let them reach millions of new customers. Our No. 34 program has a solid base of partners that allows us to interact with a new partner such as Stage Front. That makes it fun for us, the partner and the fans, too.”
Stage Front will sponsor the team at Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
McDowell is coming off a 2021 season in which he made the Cup playoffs, scoring one win, two top fives and five top 10s.
