PETRONAS Lubricants International is proud to be appointed as the official lubricants partner of the 2015 Avon Tyres British GT Championship. PETRONAS is taking part in the event together with its partner, Anglo American Oil Company Ltd.

PETRONAS Lubricants International (PLI), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PETRONAS, the national oil corporation of Malaysia, is the technical resource behind PETRONAS’ Technical Partnership to the MERCEDES AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team, and is responsible for the design, development and delivery of the Fluid Technology Solutions™ program.

The experience gained by PETRONAS in both F1 and other motorsport activities, has inspired the development of the PETRONAS Syntium range of lubricants. This new high-tech lubricant range is suitable for all new generation engine requirements.

Tony Lowe, Head of Market Great Britain, said: “PETRONAS Fluid Technology Solutions™ provide an intelligent approach to your fluid requirements that maximizes performance through tailor-made product offerings and expert services.

“The extreme conditions experienced through today’s key motorsport activity serve to prove the superior performance associated with the PETRONAS brand and we are extremely proud that the British GT Championship has appointed PETRONAS as their Official lubricants partner for the 2015 season.”

Anders Hildebrand, Managing Director of Anglo American Oil Company Ltd, said: “I'm delighted that PETRONAS has become the official lubricants partner of British GT. We started marketing PETRONAS oils to high performance garages earlier in January 2015 and this announcement will help to grow the awareness of PETRONAS in this particular sector that we plan to expand into.”

Benjamin Franassovici, British GT Championship Coordinator, said: “It's great to have a partner like PETRONAS being part of British GT, we are looking forward to some close racing this season and this is another plus for our series.”
