North West 200 secures three-year extension with event's title sponsors
- Published
Mervyn Whyte says the sponsorship extension will give North West 200 organisers the 'financial security required to plan for the future of the races'
The North West 200 will continue to have fonaCAB and Nicholl Oils as title sponsors over the next three years.
The two Northern Ireland companies were the principal sponsors of this year's races, which was the 90th anniversary of the motorcycling event.
"Their support is an indication of the platform the event can offer companies," said North West 200 Event Director Mervyn Whyte.
The 2020 North West 200 will be held from 10-16 May.
The sponsorship confirmation is a boost for the sport amid financial difficulties for the Ulster Grand Prix and the Cookstown 100 and confirmation that the Enniskillen 100 will not take place next season.
