Subway Australia is now a sponsor of PremiAir Racing, with the sandwich chain’s colours now featured in one of the team’s supercars.

Garry Jacobson will pilot the yellow and green #76 Subway Commodore.

“This year, Peter Xiberras (PremiAir Racing team owner) rang me and asked what number I wanted to run. No team owner has ever given me that option before. I was shocked but also very humbled he did that. So, I didn’t need to think twice. This year for the first time in my motorsport career I can finally represent my father’s number on track,” he said in a media release.

“I’m excited to be a part of this exciting chapter with Peter, the team at PremiAir and Subway. I’m proud to be associated with a brand that promotes good health & wellness and delivers quick, nutritional meals for people on the go, like myself. It’ll be great having Subway’s Famous Footlongs on track to help fuel the team,” he added.

“With over 1,200 restaurants across the country, Subway is fuelling more Australians with even more fresh options than ever before. We’re excited to partner with PremiAir Racing to bring our fast, fresh, nutritious options to the track,” Subway Australia and New Zealand communications manager Rhys Reynolds added.

PremiAir Racing will be on track for the first time on February 23 at Queensland Raceway for its first Test Day and will make its racing debut in round one of the 2022 championship at Sydney Motorsport Park on March 4 to 6.
