Earlier today, there was great news for the Richard Petty Motorsports team. As it turns out, the organization has just struck a multi-year partnership with FOCUSfactor. According to reports, the company will take on the role of the primary partner of the #43 Next-Gen Chevrolet of Erik Jones. However, the brand will only be present on the car for 26 events during the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series season.

“NASCAR represents a very rich opportunity for FOCUSfactor,” Synergy CHC Corp chairman Jack Ross said. “To be partnered with Richard Petty Motorsports, and their rich history of excellence, is an amazing opportunity for the FOCUSfactor brand. Having Erik Jones, a proven NASCAR Cup Series winner, and one of NASCAR’s most talented young drivers, behind-the-wheel of our FOCUSfactor Next Gen Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is something we are incredibly excited about.”
