He has joined the Gallagher/Chip Ganassi Racing Team, donned the blue, white and silver team colors and embarked on a new direction in time with independent watchmaker, Armin Strom. The driver, already familiar with the Armin Strom brand since his F1 days, approached Armin Strom when he moved to IndyCar and the brand quickly got behind him again as a sponsor. Now, the two take their partnership to a new level, unveiling the Armin Strom Max Chilton Edge Double Barrel Watch.
