"Ever since we joined Rocket League last year, we wanted to expand our presence with all things cars and motorsports, especially with the reception we had surrounding the success of both of our Rocket League teams and our partnership with Mobil 1," said Martin Kim, Head of Partnerships at Gen.G. "Gaming is a connector and NASCAR shares in that belief. Together we can explore opportunities that resonate with all audiences and communities".

"At NASCAR, we believe gaming bridges the gap between the virtual and real world, fostering a deeper connection with our sport," said Nick Rend, NASCAR managing director, gaming and esports. "Gen.G shares the belief that gaming is a connector. We are excited to continue our commitment to Rocket League with Gen.G  by hosting The Pit Stop at  RLCS Boston Major with them and Mobil 1.
