Force India gets all oiled-up by new partner RAVENOL

Force India has secured a technical partnership with high-quality lubricant manufacturer RAVENOL for the 2018 season.

Based in Germany, Ravensberger Schmierstoffvertrieb GmbH has built itself an enviable worldwide reputation for developing, manufacturing and marketing its RAVENOL lubricant products since 1946.

The company's 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," says Force India boss 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."
