Mobil 1™ is the Official Motor Oil of NASCAR®
ExxonMobil and NASCAR have a long-standing partnership, with the Mobil 1™ brand serving as the Official Motor Oil of NASCAR since 2003.
Motor oil formulated for motorsports
Top-notch performance on the track means pushing limits. Custom racing engines need to endure high rpm and operating temperatures, so they require specially formulated, advanced motor oils. It’s a big reason why Mobil 1 is the Official Motor Oil of NASCAR and many drivers use Mobil 1 motor oils for proven performance in the most extreme conditions.
Full tilt from start to finish line
Mobil 1 motor oil is engineered to deliver outstanding power output while boosting levels of wear protection in a wide range of engine applications. More than 30 years of collaboration with some of the top motorsports teams in the world have helped ExxonMobil develop motor oils that meet the demands of numerous racing series.
In NASCAR, a single race can keep 43 stock cars running at full throttle for 500 miles. That’s a serious test of the engine’s motor oil, which further illustrates why you can find Mobil 1 lubricants in so many NASCAR vehicles.
Tony Stewart isn’t just blowing smoke
Tony "Smoke" Stewart knows a thing or two about winning. He’s captured three NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championships, an Indy Racing League championship and a USAC Triple Crown championship. So he’s understandably excited about having the Mobil 1 brand as a primary team sponsor.
"It's fun having [Mobil 1] on board from the standpoint that we’re always going to be on the cutting edge of technology. And the fact that they just don’t stop; they don’t say, ‘This is good enough.’ They always are looking [for ways] to make things faster, how to make them more efficient ... It’s cool to have the technology added to what we do."
– Tony Stewart, co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing
