Loenbro Motorsports have announced a tie-up with JCB for this weekend’s Red Bull Global Rallycross round in Louisville, Kentucky.

The agreement will see Steve Arpin‘s M-Sport Ford Fiesta ST sport the colours of the industrial vehicle manufacturer and a JCB 509-23TC Loadall telescopic handler put on display in the Red Bull GRC paddock.

“The JCB and Loenbro partnership makes so much sense,” said Arpin, who also serves as Loenbro Motorsports’ team manager. “Both are family-owned companies and industry leaders. They work hard to serve their customers, and many of those customers are racing fans.”

“JCB and Loenbro share strong associations with motorsports and a passion for innovation and engineering, but the true character of both companies is evident in the quality of our people and our commitment to our communities,” added Thom Peebles, vice-president of marketing for JCB in North America. “It is exciting to collaborate with the Loenbro team, to align our shared enthusiasm for business, community and racing success.”
