Week after week, the standard NASCAR paint schemes fill the tracks with their normal and sometimes bland designs that just look like blurs of white and red and black and blue driving in circles. But every once in a while, a team puts together a real winner in the looks department - though we highlight the hideous ones too - and those deserve to be celebrated.
Enter Team Penske and Brad Keselowski's No. 2 Ford. This weekend at ISM Raceway in Phoenix, Keselowski's Miller Lite sponsored car has an ugly holiday sweater theme to it, and it's amazing.

We think the Team Penske guys do, too... 🤔 pic.twitter.com/MAJWaqKVkN
Yes, it's too early to talk about any holiday other than Thanksgiving, but Team Penske gets a pass because who doesn't love an ugly sweater look?
It's kitschy, it's goofy and it's just a better take on a predominantly white car. Plus, it will definitely stand out, which is also the point. It also came with a similarly cheesy video from the team.
Winter wonderland in the desert? Yes, please. 🌵☃@keselowski's No. 2 @MillerLite Ford has a new scheme for this weekend's race at @ISMRaceway. 🎄🏁 pic.twitter.com/1wLpb5PLsL— Team Penske (@Team_Penske) November 7, 2018
The penultimate race of the NASCAR Cup Series season is Sunday's Can-Am 500 - the last playoff elimination race that will determine the final four drivers still racing for the championship. Keselowski was previously eliminated following the Round of 12.
