Subway announced Thursday its commitment to sponsor Joe Gibbs Racing rookie Daniel Suarez in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series.
Suarez, who is taking the wheel from the recently retired Carl Edwards in the No. 19 JGR Toyota Camry, will pick up Edwards' Subway sponsorship at Auto Club Speedway, the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway, the Coke Zero 400 Powered by Coca-Cola at Daytona International Speedway and at Talladega Superspeedway in October.
"I'm extremely grateful to Subway for their continuing sponsorship of our Joe Gibbs Racing team this year," Suarez said in a release. "I enjoy eating healthy, and Subway has always been my go-to choice to refuel my body when I'm on the road or at home. I'm looking forward to a great 2017 season in the Subway Toyota Camry."
Suarez, whose favorite sandwich is the Footlong Subway Club, will also appear in upcoming TV commercials for the SUBWAY brand.
