On September 25, the Hispanic

community shone at the Texas Motor Speedway, thanks to the event organized jointly by Coca-Cola, NASCAR and the Mexican driver Daniel Suárez.

«All this started as an idea in 2019, we made it a reality in California and it has grown and grown, and I am very happy that Hispanics and Latin people like me can come and feel at home,» said the evening’s host, welcoming the media and the attendees.

The first Daniel Suárez Friends event was held on March 17, 2019 at the Auto Club 400 in Fontana, California, where more than 500 guests danced and sang to the beat of drums before the race.

«We want to make Los Amigos feel at home during the NASCAR race, and when they feel at home, I feel at home,» declared the driver who, since that year, has collaborated with Coca-Cola, Texas Motor Speedway and NASCAR to get more and more people interested in auto racing.

On September 25, the Daniel Suárez Friends program once again organized a potluck with the Hispanic community in Texas, just before the Autotrader EchoPark Automotive, where attendees were able to enjoy mariachi music, gifts and recreational activities.

With excitement, camaraderie and a supportive environment, Daniel Suárez (the first mexican-born driver to ever win a NASCAR Cup Series) and attendees at the Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500, held at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth, celebrated Hispanic heritage with mariachi music, food and gifts.

When Daniel Suárez started this program, he never imagined the positive reception it would receive. Those attending Daniel’s Amigos at the Texas Motor Speedway  said they were grateful for the opportunity to highlight Hispanic heritage in an environment of friendship and solidarity, and they believe Suárez is a stellar representative of the Hispanic community in NASCAR.
