Yamaha MotoGP featuring #25 Maverick Viñales and #46 Valentino Rossi
Although the Yamaha Factory Racing MotoGP team took a respectable 2nd place in the 2017 Team World Championship, with #25 Maverick Viñales (SPA) taking 3rd and #46 Valentino Rossi (ITA) coming in 5th last season, our partners at Yamaha are looking to regain some ground this year. They have consistently proven to be at the head of the pack, and now that they have fine tuned some team and mechanical changes, this should be an exciting year. ENEOS and all their fans will be anxiously awaiting what 2018 will bring!

World of Outlaws
Kyle Larson Racing
Through our partnership with Kyle Larson in his NASCAR races, we also sponsor his dirt track endeavors. Most races are driven for World of Outlaws by Shane Stewart in the No. 2 Kyle Larson Racing sprint car, although Larson also carries a dirt schedule that sees him racing in WoO and other major series. They are an extremely successful team, and 2018 should be no different.
