“Ryan has been an extremely valued member of Team Wheaties over the past few years,” Stephanie Moffat, associate marketing manager for Wheaties said in a statement. “We couldn’t be more proud to honor someone who’s shown time and again that he’s a champion on and off the track.”
Dungey says getting on a Wheaties box is a very exciting moment for him. “I can’t tell you how many times my brother and I sat there joking about, you know, one day that’s going to be me on the box,” Dungey said.
Dungey’s limited-edition box will be available nationwide in January 2016.
