“We are very excited to join The Classic at Silverstone, an iconic event taking place on an iconic circuit, as official lubricant partner. We will obviously use this great opportunity for showcasing our racing and historical vehicles lines but not only that. We will also bring our Motul Racing Laboratory, tested and approved by racing teams worldwide over the past few years and ready to analyse the used oil and provide crucial data about engine conditions to all competitors in just a few minutes. Last but not least we will share with British fans nice racing memories from past decades from working alongside legendary British racing teams and drivers such as BRM, Tom Walkinshaw and Frank Williams” said Romain Grabowski, Head of Brand at Motul.
This year, the Silverstone Classic will take place on the weekend 30th July – 1st August and tickets are on sale now with a COVID booking guarantee which means that if Silverstone is prevented from allowing spectators at 2021 events due to a change in current Government guidelines, all ticket-buyers will have the option to either transfer their ticket to the following year or receive a full refund.
“This important new partnership is the perfect fit and reflects Motul’s passionate dedication to both the racing and classic car scenes over many decades ,” confirmed Nick Wigley, CEO of The Classic promoter Goose Live Events. “Motul is renowned right around the world and boasts a remarkably strong heritage of innovation and technical advancement.
