Mazda signs deal with 94Corolla5Speed to drive in MX-5 Cup and other races
“Hardcore fans know that some of the most intense action can be found in the Playboy MX-5 Cup, Star Mazda and Cooper Tires U.S. F2000 Championship,” said Jim Jordan, alternative marketing manager, Mazda North America. “But if you weren't at the race, you are left to take our word for it. Now, thanks to a partnership with Velocity, and Carolinas Production Group, fans can enjoy the action on a regular basis from their living room.”
Rick Benjamin, an award-winning motorsports broadcaster, will host the show, while the Carolinas Production Group will take care of the technical stuff. Benjamin will be joined in the booth by Randy Pobst for the MX-5 Cup and by James Hinchcliffe on Star Mazda and U.S. F2000. Todd Lewis will be the pit reporter.
The broadcast will be an hour-long program once per week. It will be shown on tape delay from April to November. Mazda says the three series are part of the MazdaSpeed Motorsports Ladder, while the Star and U.S. F2000 championships are also a part of the Mazda Road to Indy.
