Xbox Australia, DJR Team Penske continue partnership for 2015 V8 Supercars ’cause Forza

Today, Xbox Australia and DJR Team Penske confirmed that their partnership will continue into the 2015 V8 Supercars Championship, ’cause Forza Motorsport 6.

Marcos Ambrose will drive his #17 Ford Falcon in the 2015 V8 Supercars Championship, kicking off this weekend at Sydney Motorsport Park. The car will look pretty damn similar to the Falcon driven as a wildcard in the 2014 championships.

“It is fantastic to have Xbox on board for the season,” commented DJR Team Penske Managing Director Ryan Story. “Although the Sydney event in 2014 was a one off opportunity, the Xbox team were very committed to doing everything possible to ensure the partnership was a success. They understood that we were there to learn, and having them back this year allows us to build on that momentum.”

Jeremy Hinton, Xbox Business Lead, says, “This year is truly exciting for us – a continuation of our ongoing partnership with the V8 Supercars, an innovative partnership with Ford and Forza Motorsport 6 and now with Marcos Ambrose and the DJR Team Penske team. There’s never been a better time to be a motorsport fan with Xbox in Australia.”

The DJR Team Penske Xbox Falcon will be on track all weekend at Sydney Motorsport Park, free to attend by the public.
