CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Mobil 1 will remain the “Official Motor Oil of NASCAR” through 2017 under a contract extension announced Monday with parent company ExxonMobil.

Mobil 1 is entering its 11th year as an official NASCAR partner, a relationship that began in 2003 when it replaced Unocal 76 as the sport’s official lubricant. Mobil 1 will now be a contingency partner across all NASCAR national and touring series, the presenting sponsor of the Mobil 1 Driver of the Race Award, and the presenting sponsor of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series.
