Joe Gibbs Racing has rolled out another stunner of a paint job for their star driver, courtesy of Mavis Tires. It’s got Denny Hamlin metaphorically written all over it – you can spot his style a mile off. The flashy new look was unveiled hot on the heels of an announcement from the Joe Gibbs Racing squad, crowning Mavis Tires & Brakes as the main sponsor for Denny Hamlin‘s #11 Toyota Camry XSE in a handful of NASCAR Cup Series showdowns in 2024.

This year, Mavis Tire & Brakes is throwing its weight behind Hamlin for a lineup of eight races. These include Phoenix Raceway, Bristol Motor Speedway, Richmond Speedway, Dover Motor Speedway, Charlotte Motor Speedway, Pocono Raceway, Atlanta Motor Speedway, and rounding it off at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Last year, Mavis teamed up with Hamlin’s #11 ride at Joe Gibbs Racing for a series of eight races. It was a run that included Hamlin’s milestone 50th NASCAR Cup Series win at the Pocono Raceway in July. The deal, along with its recent extension, was clinched by JGR’s ally, C10 Media, the brains behind ANC, a bigwig in the world of sports display tech and ad magic.

With the season’s engines starting up and Mavis Tire & Brakes back on board from the Phoenix race, Hamlin’s all smiles about keeping the Mavis banner flying. Joe Gibbs Racing has whipped up a paint scheme that’s quintessential Hamlin. Mint green and white – a combo he reckons has been his rabbit’s foot.

Hamlin shared, “Our partnership with Mavis has been great for both sides. Last season, we had a ton of success in the Mavis colors. It is always exciting to bring new partners into the sport and to be able to deliver on their investment. I’m looking forward to what we can do together this year.”

On the flip side, Mavis’s top brass, David Sorbaro, is just as stoked. “We are thrilled to team up with Joe Gibbs Racing and Denny Hamlin again this year for what promises to be an exciting 2024 racing season. This union with NASCAR continues to be a perfect fit.”

Stephen Sorbaro, Mavis’s other head honcho, chimed in too. This partnership continues to complement our dedication to the automotive industry and our connection to communities and neighborhoods around the country. We look forward to another great season with our customers and the Mavis family cheering on the No. 11 team.”

Mavis sponsored Hamlin last year as well and fans are buzzing to see this year’s version of the paint job that’s been a crowd-pleaser.
