Aral continues to be DTM’s exclusive fuel supplier
In the 2008 season, all the DTM cars again will be fuelled
with Aral’s state of the art High Performance Fuel,
Aral Ultimate 100. The ‘Deutsche Aral AG’ and
DTM promoter and rights holder ITR e.V. extended the cooperation
already running since 2005 for another year. This means that
Aral remains exclusive fuel supplier of the most popular international
touring car series. The partnership of DTM and the top fuel
of the biggest German petrol-station company is completed
by an extensive advertising presence at the race venues.
“With Aral, we have got a partner who actively stands
up for the series far beyond the DTM frontiers,” says
Walter Mertes, ITR e.V. Board Member Marketing and Sponsoring.
“Hence, we look forward to the continuation of our cooperation.
A better performance level at reduced consumption, that’s
one of the key factors when it comes to succeeding in motor
racing. And with Aral Ultimate 100, DTM can rely on just the
fuel that stands for these attributes.”
“We are proud of the fact that Audi and Mercedes-Benz
are going to again rely on our fuel Aral Ultimate 100,”
reveals Robert Mehrtens, Fuels Product Manager Germany. “For
us, DTM represents the perfect stage for demonstrating the
capability of this High Performance Fuel. And the fact that
the DTM supporter at the petrol station can fuel his car with
the same petrol as used by the DTM cars represents another
proof of the high fuel quality.”
At the same time, the DTM partner series also will keep on
relying on the fuel supplied by Aral. Hence, the cars racing
in the Formula 3 Euro Series, the ADAC Volkswagen Polo Cup,
the Porsche Carrera Cup and the Seat Leon Supercopa also will
be fuelled with Aral Ultimate 100, in the 2008 season.
