FUCHS become team sponsor to Power Maxed Racing in BTCC 2020
Leading lubricant manufacturer FUCHS Lubricants has announced an exciting new sponsorship deal with Warwickshire-based British Touring Car Championship team, Power Maxed Racing. Formed in 2015, PMR have already established themselves amongst the championship’s top teams.
FUCHS has agreed a package to become a team sponsor to PMR for the 2020 season. The agreement will see FUCHS’ logo feature on both PMR cars, in their garage and on PMR teamwear throughout the 10 BTCC events, whilst also providing further corporate and hospitality opportunities.
PMR – who have secured two top five team finishes in the past two seasons - is braced for another strong season, boasting an impressive driver line-up.
Former two-time BTCC Champion Jason Plato holds 98 championship wins - the most in the history of the championship. Alongside team-mate Mat Jackson, they have a combined 128 race wins, which is more than any other pairing on this year’s BTCC grid.
FUCHS will provide the team with product, supported by ongoing technical support to keep both cars at optimum performance on the track.
