Motul-powered teams aim for TSS victory

Motul announced that its partner teams are competing for victory at the ongoing Bangsaen Grand Prix of the Thailand Super Series (TSS).

Toyota Gazoo Racing Team Thailand and Viper Niza Racing, two Motul-sponsored teams, are participating in today’s race that will last until July 2, 2023.

Vying for the TSS Thailand Supercar GTM class championship lead is Nattavude Charoensukhawatana. The Thai driver is helming the number 24 Toyota Gazoo Racing Team Thailand Lexus RCF GTM race car.

Ensuring Charoensukhawatana’s number 24 car is running in optimum condition is Motul's class-leading 300V lubricant.

“We are feeling optimistic about our upcoming race at Bangsaen and are confident in our ability to succeed. Thanks to the high-quality lubricants from Motul, our engines and transmissions are running flawlessly. We rely on a range of Motul products, including engine oil, gear transmission oil, and brake fluid, to ensure that our racing car runs smoothly and efficiently. With Motul's top-notch products, we can focus on performing at our best on the track and achieving success,” Charoensukhawatana said in a press release.

Motul not only offers exceptional engine oils but also other essential products like the world-class RBF700 brake fluid.

The said brake fluid is utilized by all Motul-backed teams, including the number 65 Aston Martin Vantage GT3 driven by Viper Niza Racing’s Douglas Khoo.

Motul’s RBF700 brake fluid helps maintain the car’s braking performance at the highest levels, especially because its steel brakes can reach temperatures of almost 700 degrees Celsius.

“Motul has been an essential partner for our team, providing us with top-quality lubricants that ensure our cars run smoothly and reliably. Since partnering with Motul, we have not experienced a single-engine issue, which has allowed us to secure victories in both sprint and endurance races. With a wide range of Motul products at our disposal, including 300V engine lubricant, brake fluids, brake cleaners, coolants, and helmet cleaners, we can confidently run our cars with maximum efficiency and dependability. Racing at Bangsaen will be an incredible experience, with the narrow street circuit leaving no room for error and the electric atmosphere surrounding the track adding to the excitement,” Khoo was quoted saying.

Motul’s performance-oriented products, like the aforementioned 300V lubricant and RBF700 brake fluid, help the brand’s partner teams in competing in street circuits — such as the Bangsaen Street Circuit.

These venues are notorious for their narrow roads, tight corners, and unforgivingly tight walls. The Bangsaen Street Circuit, in particular, boasts unique features such as hairpin turns, bumpy roads, and height changes that add to the challenge and test the car’s reliability.

Motul’s lubricants are ideal for harsh environments and provide the company’s partner teams with the tools they need to overcome such trials.
