NEW YORK, NY and INDIANAPOLIS, IN (Nov. 5, 2009) -
Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation (NYSE: PVH) announced today a multi-year agreement in principle with the Indy Racing League (IRL), the sanctioning body for the IndyCar Series, for its IZOD brand to become the title sponsor of the newly renamed IZOD IndyCar Series. The IZOD IndyCar Series, which will mark the League's first title sponsorship since 2001, introduced its new logo and key partnership details today, with additional activation, promotional plans and marketing initiatives to be revealed in the coming months, prior to the start of the 2010 season.

Penske Racing announcement November 19th...
Target Chip Ganassi Racing's Scott Dixon welcomes Will Power to the IZOD IndyCar Series for the full complement of 2010 races. He just doesn't welcome the additional championship competition.
Power, who competed in six races with Penske Racing this past season, was confirmed Nov. 19 as a full-season entry for the team in the No. 12 Verizon Wireless Honda-powered Dallara. He'll again join forces with Team Penske teammates Helio Castroneves, a three-time Indianapolis 500 winner, and Ryan Briscoe, who placed third in the 2009 series championship.
"He was very fast and who knows what the guy could do with a full season and starting off the right way with all the pre-season testing," said Dixon, who followed up his 2008 series title with a runner-up finish in the standings to teammate Dario Franchitti. "He's obviously very talented and showed it with the short time he was in last year and the year before (with KV Racing Technology). Last year, the races he did helped out the team and made it tougher for us."
