"Motul is very excited to be a major partner for this iconic endurance race. The track itself is a gruelling challenge for driver and machine alike, and this event serves as a fantastic showcase of Motul's product leadership. Motorsport is a crucial element of our business. Every day, we work with the world's best drivers and teams to gain professional input of our lubricant technology on the race track, allowing us to finetune our products that would help them discover even more performance. In addition to product innovation, we are expanding our operational footprint, and optimizing our logistical processes by investing in facilities. Ultimately, this would enable us to be closer to our OEM, distribution and retail customers, and understand their market trends and priorities even more.
Beyond products, however, we are excited to see motorsport coming back after COVID19 lockdowns across the region. Motul is passionate about motorsport after all, and we are thrilled to see audiences around the region attend the race. It will be a great event to meet all the partners and distributors that help execute our vision on the ground level. We look forward to seeing our guests enjoy the weekend and experience life at Sepang!"
