Lilly Diabetes named health partner of NASCAR

NASCAR has designated Lilly Diabetes its official health partner for diabetes.

The pair have entered into a multi-year partnership. 

Lilly Diabetes is already the primary sponsorship of the No. 16 Ford Mustang driven by Roush Fenway Racing's Ryan Reed, who recently won his second career NASCAR XFINITY Series race at Daytona International Speedway.

"As a leader in diabetes care for more than 90 years, we understand the daily challenges that millions of Americans face managing this disease,"  Mike Mason, Lilly Diabetes' U.S. vice president, said in an annoucement. "Our partnership with NASCAR, along with our continued relationship with Ryan, emphasizes the critical role of ongoing discussions with your doctor about how to best manage the disease."

Lilly Diabetes has been in diabetes care since 1923, when it introduced the world's first commercial insulin.
