Milka's So Fast - She's in Seven Cities at the Same Time

July 25, 2005 - CITGO Racing's winning female driver Milka Duno is currently

featured on billboards in seven U.S. cities as part of CITGO's on-going

Hispanic marketing initiative. Milka, sporting her red, white and blue CITGO

Racing uniform, can be seen "larger than life" by motorists in Miami,

Chicago, Tampa, Atlanta, Orlando, Boston and Houston.

Duno appears on a total of 46 billboards at multiple locations in each of

the cities. There are five in Miami, two in Houston, five in Orlando,

twenty-three in Tampa, two in Atlanta, three in Chicago and six in Boston.

"I live in Miami and it is a fun but different feeling when I'm driving and

all of a sudden I look up and see myself on a billboard," laughed Duno. "I

feel very lucky and honored that CITGO has given me the opportunity to

represent them both on and off the track."

“Milka Duno’s accomplishments are an example of what a Latin American woman

can achieve in a sport dominated by men,” said CITGO Petroleum Corporation

President and CEO Félix Rodríguez.

The billboards feature Duno in her CITGO Racing driver's uniform along with

her signature and the statement "YO CITGO A LA CARRERA" - which translates

to "I'm still running" or "I'm still in a hurry."

Duno adds, "Fans that have seen the billboard, when they spot me somewhere,

come up and say to me 'Yo CITGO las carreras por ti!' It's really a

compliment that they have seen the sign and that they are interested."

Duno competes with CITGO Racing for their second consecutive season in the

2005 Rolex Sports Car Series. She is the first woman in history to race in

the highest class - the Daytona Prototype - in the #2 CITGO Pontiac

Crawford. In her first season with CITGO Racing Duno became the first woman

in history to win a major sports car race in North America when she won the

2004 Grand Prix of Miami. Duno scored her second Rolex Series win at the

same venue seven months later. She recently scored her first win of the 2005

season and her third Rolex Series win at the Circuit du Mont-Tremblant in

Canada.
