The synergies between Motul and McLaren GT are evident: high performance, quality, prestige and a long, successful history in motorsport. Following a successful association in 2016 with McLaren GT customer race team, Garage 59, a newly announced partnership sees Motul become the approved lubricant supplier of McLaren GT and its customer teams.
2016 was a successful debut year in the working relationship, with highlights including victory at the Bathurst 12 Hours in Australia, and a championship title in the Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup. The partnership will, from 2017, see Motul supporting six McLaren 650S GT3 models in the popular Blancpain Endurance Series and Blancpain Sprint Series – four entries in both championships from the British ‘Strakka Racing’ team – and two 570S GT4 entries in the British GT Championship with the ‘Black Bull Garage 59’ team.
Central to the deal is the technical relationship between the two companies, and products from Motul’s Motorsport Line range are now recommended to all new and existing customer teams. Among these products will be 300V Trophy 0W40 (engine oil), Gear 300 LS 75W90 (gear box oil) and RBF 660 (brake fluid).
Motul and McLaren GT are hard at work preparing a special event which will take place in June to fully celebrate the partnership. Curious? Stay tuned for more information and get ready for some fun on and off track!
