Motorsport star lands sponsorship deal with local company
April 8, 2021 - St. Petersburg-based Dynasty Financial Partners has inked a sponsorship deal with Sebastien Bourdais, who, with 37 wins to his name, is one of the most successful drivers in the history of American Championship car racing. Bourdais is also a St. Pete resident and a frequent competitor in the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg, winning the event in 2017. “We are proud to support St. Pete’s local hero, Sebastien Bourdais, in both his professional races and charitable events that positively impact our local communities,” Dynasty founder and CEO Shirl Penney stated in a news release. “Sebastien is a winner — and winners like to surround themselves with other winners! This sponsorship of Sebastien provides another opportunity for us to even more broadly support and create excitement around our hometown community of St. Pete, while furthering awareness of the Dynasty brand in support of our clients.” Bourdais, the release states, will wear the Dynasty logo on both his helmet and jumpsuit and represent the company at various promotional and charitable events throughout the year. Dynasty is also a sponsor of tennis star Danielle Collins, a St. Pete native.
