If you’re into modern motorcycle racing, you’ve probably heard of Liqui Moly. It is Europe’s leading motor oil manufacturer, a global lubrication powerhouse, and official partner of Moto2 and Moto3 – and their top quality motorcycle products are finally a
Who are Liqui Moly?
Founded in Germany in 1957, where its products are still developed and manufactured, Liqui Moly is a globally renowned manufacturer of premium quality lubricants, motor oils, additives, vehicle care products, chemical repair tools, service products, glues and sealants. Liqui Moly claims that its products are perfect for use at home, in professional workshops, or for industrial use – and the company is confident that its high performance products lengthen the service life of motors and aggregates, ensuring that they will go on performing just as they should for years to come.
And Dorna thought that made the firm a perfect partner for the world’s fastest motorcycle racing championship, MotoGP.
Liqui Moly and MotoGP
When the lights go off at the start of a race, it’s not (just) the best start that counts in the battle for the podium, but the best overall performance. Man and machine must be able to cooperate in absolute harmony if they are to be successful at the highest level of racing – and the use of top quality lubricants can make that cooperation a little bit easier.
In 2015, Liqui Moly joined forces with the FIM MotoGP World Championship, as the Exclusive Lubricant Supplier to Moto2 and Moto3 (an agreement which runs right through to 2020). This season (as in previous years) all teams will use the same ‘Made in Germany’ motor oil, a commercially available Motorbike 4T Synth 5W-40 Street Race. The fact that the oil is eminently suitable for both top level racing and general consumer use, is surely a testament to the very high quality of product that Liqui Moly turns out.
Peter Baumann, marketing director at Liqui Moly said: “We’re proud to see our brand related to the most interesting and exciting events in global motorsports and it’s also a great feeling seeing all Moto2 and Moto3-teams of the FIM MotoGP World Championship using our products in and on their bikes.”
While Pau Serracanta, managing director, commercial area at Dorna Sports added: “We are proud to continue our relationship with a company such as Liqui Moly, who are a global player in providing one of the most important yet unseen aspects of top level competition.”
And that’s not all either; Liqui Moly is also involved with the IntactGP team, whose riders Sandro Cortese and Marcel Schrötter race in Moto2 under the Liqui Moly banner, while making use of the extensive range of top notch products available to them. And in North America Liqui Moly sponsors both the National MotoAmerica Racing Series and the Canadian Superbike Championship Series.
So no matter what you need, be it engine and gear oils, oil and fuel additives, chemical problem solvers, service products and special lubricants, everything you might conceivably require to keep your pride and joy in the best possible condition and performing exactly as you need it to is available from a single source – Liqui Moly. And with their commitment to racing, you can guarantee you’re going to get some top level tech.
