Century 21 sponsors Newgarden in Indianapolis 500

Josef Newgarden lands Century 21 as primary sponsor for Indianapolis 500

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Josef Newgarden has landed a sponsor for the Indianapolis 500 with Century 21.

The real estate sales organization will sponsor Newgarden with its "Century 21 Agents: Smarter. Bolder. Faster." campaign in the May 26 race.

Newgarden will trade his traditional No. 67 for No. 21 to recognize the sponsorship on the Sarah Fisher Hartman Racing entry.

Team co-owner Sarah Fisher unveiled the car Wednesday in Las Vegas at Century 21's global conference.

Century 21 officials believe the campaign is a natural fit with the 21-year-old Newgarden, who topped the speed charts as a rookie last year on multiple practice days at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
