PPG has announced that it is continuing its partnership with the MG KX Momentum Racing Team in 2013, while the team has made a winning start at the first event.

PPG are proud to be a part of what looks like it may be a very successful season and we wanted the cars look to be a reflection of that and we think we’ve achieved it.”
