Force India has announced a partnership with Ravenol, the high-quality lubricants specialists.
The Ravensberger Schmierstoffvertrieb GmbH based in Werther, Germany, manufactures and markets high-quality lubricants under the brand name "Ravenol" since 1946. Their Research and Development Department, one of the most technically advanced in the world, is where some of the most innovative lubricants on the market today are developed - not only to meet, but often to exceed the requirements of even the most ambitious vehicle manufacturer and to comply with future regulations. Their high-quality lubricants will be supplied directly to the Force India development center in Silverstone.
"I'm delighted to welcome Ravenol to the team as we prepare for the start of the 2018 season," said Vijay Mallya. "Formula One represents a fantastic opportunity for Ravenol to reach a huge global audience and increase awareness of its high quality products. We look forward to a successful partnership as we work with Ravenol to achieve their marketing objectives."
"We are committed to reducing fuel consumption and environmental impact by continually utilising the latest developments in lubrication technology to produce some of the most advanced lubricants available," added Ravenol's Head of Motorsport, Martin Huning, who sees the entry into Formula 1 as the next logical step in further developing a brand already respected in motorsport around the world. "To have been chosen as the Official Lubricants Partner of the Force India F1 team serves to underline the quality of our products."
The partnership will see Ravenol branding appear on the bargeboard of the team's VJM11 car as well as on the drivers' race suits.
