NASCAR is one of the most viewed professional sports in terms of television ratings in the United States and NASCAR races are broadcast in over 150 countries worldwide. NASCAR holds 17 of the top 20 attended single-day sporting events in the world, and claims 75 million fans that purchase over $3 billion in annual licensed product sales. Fortune 500 companies including 3M sponsor NASCAR more than any other motor sport.
3M has sponsored NASCAR for over 10 years and are sponsors of the Roush Fenway motorsports team, the No. 16 car and 3M driver Greg Biffle. However, 3M's involvement extends further than just sponsorship. The majority of NASCAR Sprint Cup cars feature a 3M logo on the front wing because they use Controltac Graphic Film Series 180 from 3M. The 3M film is favoured for its reliable performance, expert finish and speed to apply; core characteristics mirrored by the NASCAR racing team and its award winning pit crew known as the Pitbulls.
