First Relay Payments, which debuted with HMS at Bristol, and now Z by HP (Hewlett Packard) Inc. have signed on to be primary partners on the No. 24 Chevrolet in three of the final eight Nascar Cup Series races this season. HP Inc. isn’t a newbie to this racing game; they first joined forces with Hendrick Motorsports back in October 2022. But now, the tech giant is taking their collaboration to the next level. People are not just going to see HP’s colors on Byron’s No. 24 car this year; they’ll be burning rubber at the Charlotte Motor Speedway Race and then revving it up in 2024, 2025, and 2026.

And guess what, race fans? Byron is absolutely thrilled! “I grew up using HP mobile workstations to study and originally had one when I started iRacing. I’m looking forward to this new partnership with our No. 24 team and such an innovative technology brand,” Byron said.

Bob Pockrass reposted the news on his Twitter handle with the caption: “Sponsorship deal with hp through 2026 includes Charlotte this year and two primaries on the No. 24 each year 2024-2026.”

It’s not just about the checkered flag for Hendrick Motorsports star William Byron and the No. 24 team; it’s also about building a brand that’s as iconic as Byron itself. Relay Payments and Z by HP are joining the party, becoming primary partners for the No. 24 Chevrolet in three of the final eight NASCAR Cup Series races this season. But hold on to your helmets! The rollercoaster at Hendrick Motorsports hasn’t reached its peak yet.
