NASCAR saw a very fascinating race at the Texas Motor Speedway in the NASCAR Xfinity Series. With multiple wrecks and cautions, we saw Tyler Reddick cross the line and take the chequered flag. On top of that, we saw Ryan Blaney clench his first win of the 2022 season. But that’s not all, as two very popular YouTubers, KSI and Logan Paul, have some fascinating news.
Logan Paul and KSI in NASCAR? Yep. We were surprised as well. However, it seems quite official that the two are entering NASCAR. Of course, they wouldn’t be driving a car, for now at least.
Prime Hydration, as the name suggests, is a hydration drink created by the two YouTubers. And, they will sponsor MBM Motorsports’ #13 Toyota Supra, steered by Timmy Hill in NASCAR’s Xfinity series for the upcoming race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

However, having seeing fans react to the news, we feel the NASCAR community might not be ready for this partnership.

Really, you never know what to expect in this sport. But, that’s what we love about NASCAR, isn’t it? However, some of you might ask what is Prime Hydration?
Prime Hydration: Logan Paul And KSI’s Hydration Drink
The two popular YouTubers and former boxing rivals came together to make a hydration drink. However, what is a ‘Hydration Drink’?
Well, as the name suggests, it’s a drink intended to hydrate a person. They made the drink with coconut water, zero sugar, BCAA’s, antioxidants, electrolytes, and zinc.
The 2 announced the drink on their own Instagram account with a post captioned, “We’re excited to announce Prime to the world and showcase what happens when rivals come together as brothers and business partners. Our goal was to create a fantastic hydration drink that can fuel any lifestyle.”
