Mickey: Adventures on Wheels and Scuderia TELMEX join together through ‘Drivers for Road Safety’
Under the most important motorsport event of our country, which will take place next October 29th, Mickey: Adventures on Wheels will bring closer the little ones to the incredible world of racing in a live experience outside the Disney Junior screen. The beloved character Mickey Mouse in the company of the renowned pilots that are part of Scuderia Telmex, which celebrates its 15th anniversary, will be responsible for raising awareness among children and their parents about the importance of following the road signs, through the campaign ‘Drivers for Road Safety’ with a touch of fun and humor for young and future drivers.
Stars of motorsports in Mexico and Latin America, such as Sergio ‘Checo’ Perez, Memo Rojas, Tatiana Calderon and Pietro Fittipaldi, along with Mickey Mouse —the protagonist of this fun animated car racing series— will be in charge of carrying these messages through 6 videos that will be broadcast on the fan page of Disney Junior Latin America and Disney channel Latin America in Facebook from October 16th 2017, as well in both channels.
As part of this great celebration, the Mexican artist ‘Cocolvú’ was asked to intervene a series of helmets, which shows in drawings the most important details of the racing careers of each of the drivers involved in the program, in a very funny and especial way to capture the memory of this great event.
Released on May 8th 2017 by Disney Junior, Mickey: Adventures on Wheels animated series follow the adventures of the beloved mouse in his role as test pilot and chief engineer in the Hot Dog Hills. Since then, in company of Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy and Pluto, it brings to the households of Latin America fun adventures along with important messages, such as teamwork and the importance of friendly competition.
