Juncos Hollinger Racing announced on Monday that Conor Daly will be sponsored by MannKind for this weekend’s 50th anniversary edition of the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach.
MannKind Corporation (Nasdaq: MNKD) focuses on the development and commercialization of innovative inhaled therapeutic products and devices to address serious unmet medical needs for those living with endocrine and orphan lung diseases. We are committed to using our formulation capabilities and device engineering prowess to lessen the burden of diseases such as diabetes, nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease, pulmonary fibrosis, and pulmonary hypertension. Our signature technologies – dry-powder formulations and inhalation devices – offer rapid and convenient delivery of medicines to the deep lung where they can exert an effect locally or enter the systemic circulation, depending on the target indication.
Daly, who has Type 1 Diabetes is excited about the arrival on MannKind and his new look livery for this weekend’s race saying:
I’m really happy to keep working with MannKind. I’ve learned so much from a lot of the folks there and we have been able to tell an incredible story. They have helped me share my Type 1 diabetes (T1D) story with so many around the world, so to be able to represent Mannkind and tell my story living with Type 1 diabetes is really amazing.”
MannKind will also be a primary sponsor of the No.76 at the Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix on June 1st and at World Wide Technology Raceway on June 15th . MannKind will continue to be an associate sponsor of Conor throughout the rest of the 2025 NTT INDYCAR Series schedule.
Dominic Marasco, President, Endocrine Business Unit of MannKind Corporation says:
We’re thrilled to introduce a head-turning livery as Conor represents JHR this weekend through the streets of Long Beach. “As part of an extended marketing partnership, we will work closely with Conor on a series of appearances to raise awareness about diabetes and innovative treatment options, aligning with key factors that are important with INDYCAR – speed and control.”
