BROWNSBURG, Ind. (March 4, 2022) – Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing (RLL) announced today that Hendrickson, a leading global manufacturer and supplier of suspension systems and components to the global commercial transportation industry, has entered into a new multi-year agreement with the team for the NTT INDYCAR SERIES that will extend their full season associate sponsorship and expand to see Hendrickson become the primary sponsor of the No. 30 entry for Christian Lundgaard at the Honda Indy 200 at Mid-Ohio, July 1-3.

Hendrickson joined the team as an associate sponsor in 2019 and created a purpose-built engineering support trailer that made its debut at the 2019 Indianapolis 500. The trailer enables the team to maximize the information sharing between their three fulltime INDYCAR programs at each of the race events in the interest of performance.

“Hendrickson is a leading global manufacturer and supplier of medium and heavy-duty suspensions systems that keep both LANCO’s and RLL’s transportation safely moving forward,” said Mike Lanigan, co-owner of Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing with Bobby Rahal and David Letterman. “Being aligned with a first-class global transportation industry leader is an honor ad we are proud to be representing the men and women of Hendrickson.”

“Hendrickson is excited to continue its relationship with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing into 2023,” added Jeff Sass, Vice President of Marketing for Hendrickson. “The sharing of ideas and RLL’s advanced engineering process has been a real win for Hendrickson. In addition, the interaction between the RLL team and Hendrickson’s customers is first rate on race day. Hendrickson is proud to be associated with the entire Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing team.”
