Matt Field and Adam LZ Deliver First-Ever 1-2 Finish for NEFT-Sponsored Drivers

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, August 15, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- NEFT Vodka, the Official Spirit Sponsor of the 2025 Formula DRIFT PRO Championship, is raising a toast to a record-breaking weekend at Formula DRIFT Seattle. For the first time in the brand’s motorsports sponsorship history, two NEFT-sponsored drivers shared the podium — with Matt Field taking the top spot and Adam LZ securing third place in Round 6 of the 2025 Formula DRIFT PRO Championship.

Field’s dominant performance in Seattle solidified his position as one of the most consistent drivers on the tour, while LZ’s precision driving and aggressive style kept fans on the edge of their seats, earning him the third spot. Together, the duo’s back-to-back podiums marked a milestone moment for NEFT’s growing presence in the world of professional drift racing.

As a result of consistency from both drivers this season, they currently hold equal-third place in the 2025 Formula DRIFT PRO Championship with 150 points each. NEFT’s third sponsored driver – three-time FD PRO Champion Chris Forsberg – finished tenth in Seattle and sits tenth in the Championship standings.“This weekend was truly historic for NEFT,” said Jeff Mahony, CEO of NEFT Vodka. “Seeing Matt and Adam take first and third is not just a win for them — it’s a win for our entire team, our fans, and everyone who shares our passion for excellence, performance, and a daring spirit.”

Formula DRIFT Seattle drew a capacity crowd to watch the high-speed, tire-smoking battles unfold in person, with hundreds of thousands viewing the livestream. The event also gave NEFT the opportunity to share its award-winning vodka with motorsports enthusiasts, blending the brand’s refined taste with the raw excitement of the sport.

With only two rounds remaining in the 2025 season, both Field and LZ are in strong contention for the championship title — and NEFT Vodka will be there every step of the way, on and off the track.
