Joe Gibbs Racing has signed Mavis Tires & Brakes as a new sponsor of Denny Hamlin and the No. 11 team. The deal covers five Cup Series races.

Mavis Tires & Brakes will be on Hamlin's Cup car for Sunday's race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway (2:30 p.m. ET on USA Network). After New Hampshire, Mavis will return at Pocono Raceway on July 23.
