NASCAR driver Brandon Brown, who found himself at the center of the “Let’s Go Brandon” political chant, has finally found a new sponsor. The Xfinity Series driver, who went through a saga of controversial events in the last six months or so, some through his actions, some completely unwarranted, seems to have it all behind him.

Because his new sponsor, the Zero FG Energy Drink, is once again, just like the LGBCoin, another cause of backlash from fans, albeit in a different sense this time. But regardless, this has made the Talladega winner annoyed.

In this regard, Brandon Brown took to Twitter and said, “Ppl: I feel bad for Brandon, I hope he gets a sponsor out of this mess, all he did was win a race,” he tweeted. “Me: Hey everyone a new company is taking a chance on me and sponsoring our car! Help me welcome them! Ppl: they look fake, they don’t have followers, that check is gonna bounce.”

Furthermore, Brown looks excited about having a new partnership. Therefore, he did not miss out on sharing his views about his new tie-up.

Brandon Brown is “proud to partner” Zero FG, hoping for a strong show at Atlanta

Brandon Brown, who will debut the new Zero FG paint scheme in Atlanta this weekend, spoke about his thoughts on his new sponsor. “I am proud to partner with Zero FG Energy Drink and to introduce their product to our passionate NASCAR fans,” he said.

As for how he feels he’ll fare in the race on the newly configured circuit, Brandon Brown said, “There are so many unknowns about how the track (Atlanta Motor Speedway) is going to race after the repave, but from what I’ve gathered, it should be very similar to superspeedway racing, which is great for us since we were able make it to Victory Lane last year at a superspeedway (Talladega) and led laps a few weeks ago at Daytona.”
