Aubervilliers, 23 May 2014. As a company with a long and illustrious past in all areas and disciplines of motorsport, there was little doubt in the minds of the cognoscenti that Motul and ‘The Mountain’ would eventually come together as partners.
This came about in 2010 and, now, international specialist in the field of motorcycle lubricants and lubrication has renewed its links with the world’s most famous road race for the fifth consecutive year. Named as Official Lubricant Partner to the Isle of Man, Motul will be present at the spiritual home of motorcycles and their riders to once again enjoy the mythology, history and excitement of the event.
Testing on the 37.73 mile public road course begins on Saturday (24th May), and the 100+ competitors have been putting themselves through their paces on the scenic Isle of Man, which lies in the Irish Sea between the North West coast of England and Northern Ireland. This year, Motul’s iconic red and white colours will be seen on two specific corners – Quarter Bridge and Gooseneck.
Motul views the IoM TT as an integral part of its two-wheel test and development programme and the complexity and duration of the event provides a perfect backdrop at which to carry out that research.
