NASCAR drivers support Martin Truex Jr.'s girlfriend at Loudon
NASCAR teams are showing their support for Sherry Pollex this weekend, as Martin Truex Jr.'s longtime girlfriend continues her fight with ovarian cancer.
A number of cars at New Hampshire Motor Speedway will feature a teal ribbon with Pollex's name. Teal is the official color of ovarian cancer awareness.

Pollex was overwhelmed by the show of support.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. is also breaking out his teal racing gloves again.

Junior wore a pair last week at Chicagoland Speedway that are currently up for auction on eBay. All proceeds will be donated to an ovarian cancer research charity of Pollex's choice.
We wish Pollex the best in her continued recovery.
In case you missed it, FOX Sports 1's NASCAR RaceDay recently spoke with Truex about a variety of topics, including Pollex. Check out the interview.
