Swiftcover.com's ad agency, Mortimer Whittaker O'Sullivan, is handling the creative, which features the call-centre chickens from the brand's TV advertising. The sponsorship TV credits will show frustrated F1 drivers talking to chickens in the pits.
The deal also covers sponsorship of ITV's Formula 1 website, itv-f1.com.
LG Electronics backed ITV's F1 coverage last year.
