Motul Renews Partnership With Alex Cascatău For The 2021 Season
Motul, one of the biggest names in the oils and lubricants industry, is backing Alex Cascatău once again in 2021 as he aims to step up the racing ladder after championship winning success in 2020. The Romanian will continue to compete for BS Racing by Baticonsult and is currently in the process finalising plans for the season, together with the team.
The French company, partner to many of the world’s top factory racing teams, will provide BSRacing with Motul 300V Competition synthetic racing oil as the team looks to further impress on the international racing stage. This will ensure maximum engine performance and minimum wear for the Luxembourg-based squad.
I am very proud to continue my partnership with Motul and want to thank them for their trust and support. After we managed to win the GT & Prototype Challenge championship together last year, we are motivated to continue the recent run of success and build on the momentum. I can't wait to tell you what the plans for 2021 are, once we move close to finalising the racing calendar!
