Last weekend, Silverstone – the home of British motorsport – welcomed thousands of fans to The Classic, the world’s largest classic car festival. As a proud partner of the event, Motul marked the second year of its multi-year deal at The Classic with an impressive line-up of activities and activations, allowing fans to get up close to the brand like never before.

HIGHLY VISIBLE

Motul had a presence at three areas of Silverstone, including a large enclosure near the Copse Runway where people could receive motor oil advice as well as buy Motul products. Fans could also get their hands on Motul’s popular and cool retro merchandise range. Let’s take a look at some of the other Motul highlights from the three-day petrolhead’s paradise.

CATERHAM RACE SIM

For fans not able to hit the real track, a Caterham race simulator on the Motul stand allowed fans to pit their racing skills against the experts on a virtual lap of Silverstone. There were also Q&A sessions with Motul drivers, technicians and the stars of Paddock Speedshop, a new TV restoration programme that Motul is the official lubricant partner of.

MOTUL RACING LAB

Also present was Motul’s Racing Lab, an impressive mobile oil laboratory where anyone can get a free oil health check for their car or motorbike’s engine and gearbox by bringing along a sample. The results could help them avoid expensive repairs in the future. Motul’s Racing Lab is used at various events around the world, such as the Dakar Rally, to provide free oil samples to competitors, even those that don’t use Motul products.
