Wood Brothers Racing rolled out the Capgemini paint scheme for Josh Berry's #21 Ford Mustang Dark Horse on Tuesday, a two-tone deep navy and cyan blue paint scheme anchored by an oversized Capgemini script wordmark that runs across both doors, the hood, and the rear decklid. It is the cleanest sponsor reveal Wood Brothers has put on the car this season and one of the sharpest two-tone blue paint schemes in the Cup Series field, a paint scheme that pairs the global IT consulting brand's signature blue color story with the heritage Wood Brothers #21 number font for a modern look that still reads as Wood Brothers at a glance.
The Two-Tone Blue Color Story
The Capgemini paint scheme splits the car body into two distinct blue values that move with the bodywork instead of just stacking flat panels. The deep navy carries the top half of the car, the roof, the front fenders, and the top of the doors, fading down into a brighter cyan blue across the lower rocker panel and the rear quarter. A pair of cyan stripes thread through the navy on the lower bodywork to give the eye a clean path from the front splitter to the rear bumper, and the same cyan stripe wraps under the deck lid for color continuity from the side profile through the rear view. Both blues track to the official Capgemini brand palette, the deep navy reading as the corporate primary and the cyan reading as the accent the brand uses across digital and print, and the two blues working together on the car deliver a cleaner color story than the Wood Brothers Motorcraft red package or the Würth red-white-black package the team has run in 2026.

The Capgemini Script Wordmark
The Capgemini script wordmark is the single most distinctive design element on the paint scheme and the choice to lean into the cursive logo at full scale across both doors is the move that separates this paint scheme from a standard contingency sponsor wrap. The white wordmark with the Capgemini accent drop sits over both door panels at full driver-quarter scale, runs across the hood directly above the Ford oval, and lands again across the rear decklid above the FORD RACING wordmark, giving the brand four high-visibility surfaces for every broadcast frame. The script set is borrowed directly from the corporate identity, with the looping C and the cursive flow holding together at speed in a way that a sans-serif sponsor wordmark would not. The white-on-navy contrast is the cleanest readability call available for the blue body, and the same script lands in white again on the dark deck lid for a consistent wordmark treatment from every camera angle.

The Sponsor Stack and the 21 Identity
Capgemini is the new title-level sponsor on the door but Wood Brothers keep the team's permanent sponsor stack visible on the lower quarter panel where it belongs. Motorcraft and Quick Lane Tire and Auto Center keep their red rectangle lockup ahead of the rear wheel, eero, Würth, and DEX hold the lower rear quarter as the standing associate stack the Wood Brothers carry on every paint scheme, and the Lincoln Welders badge sits next to the right-side window. The #21 itself sits in the standard Wood Brothers font in white on a cyan field, a clean break from the script wordmark that gives the number room to breathe on the door without competing with the Capgemini lockup directly above it. The NASCAR Cup Series 250 anniversary patch lands on the front fender, the same America 250 commemorative graphic NASCAR has rotated across every Cup Series car all season for the United States' semiquincentennial.

The Verdict
The Capgemini paint scheme is one of the cleanest non-Motorcraft Wood Brothers paint schemes of the 2026 season and a rare two-tone blue paint scheme in a Cup Series field that leans heavily on red, white, and black sponsor packages. The decision to scale the Capgemini script wordmark across four surfaces of the car instead of compressing it to a standard door-only sponsor placement is the design call that lifts the paint scheme above a contingency-style sponsor wrap, and the navy-and-cyan color split that follows the bodywork is a stronger color story than a single-tone blue would have delivered. The 21 number in the standard Wood Brothers font holds the team's heritage identity even with the script wordmark taking the central design real estate, and the white-on-navy contrast pops on broadcast in a way the red Motorcraft package has been chasing all season. The Capgemini partnership is one of the strongest new sponsor pairings on a Wood Brothers Mustang in recent memory on the design side.
