Janssen Pharmaceuticals To Sponsor Chicagoland Sprint Cup Race

Chicagoland Speedway signed Janssen Pharmaceuticals to title sponsor its fall NASCAR Sprint Cup race. The race, which is the first in the Chase for the Sprint Cup, will be known as the MyAFibStory.com 400. The name is designed to raise awareness about atrial fibrillation – AFib for short – a condition caused by irregular heartbeat. Janssen Pharmaceuticals makes a drug called Xarelto that helps prevent blood clots. Chicagoland’s Sprint Cup race was previously sponsored by Geico from '11-13. Tripp Mickle/SportsBusiness Daily
