Joe Bloggs Sponsors Karting Star
07 Mar 2009
Joe Bloggs is following up their sponsorship of F1 Champion Lewis Hamilton by signing a deal with Jay Goodwin.
Goodwin, who has recently been signed up to an apprenticeship scheme run by three-time World Touring Car Champion Andy Priaulx, is the first driver Joe Bloggs have taken on since the 1980s.
Excited about the sponsorship Goodwin said: “They sponsored Lewis Hamilton and he ended up in F1, so maybe with their sponsorship help I can end up in F1 too! It makes me really proud to think that they would choose me after previously choosing someone as good as him. I think they like taking risks, but I’m determined to prove this isn’t a risk.”
Bushra Ahmed, Marketing Director commented, “We are very proud of our sponsorship of Lewis Hamilton because of what he has achieved and the fact that he has gone on to become world champion.
“We are always interested in getting involved with young hopefuls and champions of the future, whether it be in motor racing, football, boxing, tennis, music or whatever, and it’s always great to unearth new talents like that.”
