No. 88 Andretti Harding Steinbrenner iRacing Entry to Feature Hank Steinbrenner Tribute Livery

4.17.20

Andretti Harding Steinbrenner’s No. 88 Capstone Turbine
car of Colton Herta will run a special tribute livery for Saturday’s INDYCAR
iRacing Challenge Firestone 175 at Twin Ring Motegi in honor of Hank
Steinbrenner.  

“My dad was a massive racing fan and
was Steinbrenner Racing’s biggest fan,” said George Steinbrenner IV. “He was so
supportive of me and the team, so it’s special to be able to honor him with a
livery — even in the virtual world. A massive thanks to Capstone as well for
the collaboration in honoring his memory.” 

The livery, developed with Capstone Turbine and the
Steinbrenner family, features the iconic blue and white pinstripes of the New
York Yankees and carries a special “HS” decal in two locations. 

“Capstone is honored for the
opportunity to pay tribute to Hank Steinbrenner’s legacy in the Firestone 175
INDYCAR iRacing Challenge by collaborating with Andretti Harding Steinbrenner
Autosport on the No. 88 Tribute Livery,” said Darren Jamison, President and CEO
of Capstone Turbine. “Hank’s passing is a tremendous loss to the sports
community — on behalf of the entire Capstone organization, we extend our
deepest condolences to George and the entire Steinbrenner family.”

“Obviously
it’s been a tough week for the whole Andretti Harding Steinbrenner team with
the passing of Hank Steinbrenner,” said Herta. “Hank wanted to carry the Yankee
tradition of winning into racing, and I’m really proud to be able to help honor
him this weekend with our pin-striped Capstone livery as a tribute. We’ll be
racing with heavy hearts and hoping for a great result to honor his name.” 

In addition to Herta’s tribute livery, all six
Andretti Autosport entries will carry a decal in honor of Hank for this
weekend’s INDYCAR iRacing Challenge.
