Primary Sponsor of the No. 30 Entry with Driver Jack Harvey at Honda Indy Toronto

CHICAGO, April 10, 2023 /CNW/ -- Hub International Limited (HUB), a leading global insurance brokerage and financial services firm, announced today it returns with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing (RLL) as the primary sponsor of Jack Harvey's No. 30 entry at the 2023 Honda Indy Toronto event scheduled to take place on July 14-16 at Exhibition Place along the shores of Lake Ontario. HUB will also be a full-season associate sponsor of the team and will appear on driver Graham Rahal's No. 15 entry, team uniforms and equipment.

"We've loved every second of the ride since becoming a RLL sponsor, and we're honored to be associated with prominent drivers like Jack Harvey," said Larry Lineker, HUB Executive Vice President and a member of HUB's Executive Management Team. "High-performance is central to HUB's values and what has empowered HUB to provide tailored, high-performing solutions to help clients like RLL continue to adapt to today's evolving market."

HUB has deep ties to both the racing and auto industry, supporting the risk management needs of nearly 40% of auto dealerships in Canada. HUB also insures 13 of the full-time INDYCAR drivers, which accounts for half of the field. HUB has insured RLL for more than six years and has been a partner of RLL as an associate sponsor of Graham Rahal's No. 15 car for three years.

In 2022, HUB was the primary sponsor of Christian Lundgaard's entry at the Honda Indy Toronto, one of the marquee races on the INDYCAR circuit and one of the largest sporting events in Toronto since the pandemic. The 2023 season marks Harvey's fourth full season of INDYCAR competition. His best start to date is second place in the 2021 Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg and 2020 GMR Grand Prix and his best finish is third in the 2019 Indianapolis Grand Prix.

"We are thrilled to once again team up with HUB," said Bobby Rahal, co-owner of Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing. "We see this as much more than a sponsorship – it's an opportunity to showcase our shared values - a dedication to both our industries, a winning spirit and culture of going above and beyond to maximize performance and gain advantage."
