How envious are you at these 4 lucky Malaysians who won an all expense paid trip by Shell Helix to Abu Dhabi for their Fastest 48 hrs of their lives?? They'd be among the 200 guests from over 20 countries who will be visiting the one and only, famous Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, an intense ride in the world's fastest roller coaster in the form of a Ferrari, dubbed the Formull Rossa, Dinner in the scorching Desert, as well as tickets to experience the Abu Dhabi Formula One Grand Prix!
These are the 4 finalists you'd wish you were one of, Seah Sin Jiun, Kok Chee Seng, Rahizah Mastar and Ghazali Ahmad who had beaten 11 other finalists from all over Malaysia at a fun-filled finale at the Berjaya Times Square Theme Park in October.
Ms Seow Lee Ming, Cluster Marketing Manager, Shell Lubricants SEA-South, said: “It’s great that so many Shell Helix customers, including our four winners from Malaysia, could participate in this ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ event. Working with Ferrari in Formula One and on the road really helps us differentiate Shell Helix. This competition has certainly brought it to life.
Shell topped the list of the world’s leading lubricant suppliers for the fifth year running*. Our consistent focus on leading technology and strong customer relationships has helped us to this achievement. The weekend in Abu Dhabi has been a perfect example of that, as customers from around the world have watched our technical partnership with Ferrari in action on the track.”

The three-day programme saw guests fly into the Emirate on a Friday to join fellow winners, journalists and colleagues from around the world at a gala dinner under the stars. They had the chance to meet Shell’s Formula One™ Trackside Team, just back from the Yas Marina circuit where they had been working with Shell’s technical partner, Ferrari.
The following day, the group travelled the short distance to Yas Island where they enjoyed VIP access to Ferrari World Abu Dhabi – the world’s largest indoor theme park. Once inside, the morning was spent enjoying the park, discovering more about Shell’s work with Ferrari at the re-created Trackside Laboratory and a key highlight of the park – Formula Rossa, the World’s fastest roller coaster. After the adrenalin-filled visit to the theme park, the party got a taste of the more traditional side of life in the Gulf as they travelled into the desert for a traditional Arabic dinner.
Sunday morning saw the guests travel back to Yas Island where Ferrari secured its tenth podium finish of the season thanks to a fantastic second place finish in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix from Fernando Alonso. His team-mate Felipe Massa added to the points total, by coming home fifth in the other 150º Italia.
Leila Prati, Shell Helix Global Brand Manager, said: “The ‘Fastest 48 Hours of Your Life’ is the fourth consecutive year of the Global Shell Helix brand campaign. We’re thrilled with the response. Our technical partnership with Ferrari allows us to develop superb products for the road while our passion for cars and racing is shared with our consumers all around the world.”
The Malaysian edition of the Shell Helix `Win the Fastest 48 Hours of Your Life in Abu Dhabi’ contest from 15 June to 31 August, 2011 was opened to consumers who purchase a four-litre pack of Shell Helix Ultra fully synthetic or Shell Helix HX7 synthetic technology motor oil with special Active Cleansing Technology.
