Castrol, the country’s leading premium engine oil, recognised the unsung heroes of the Malaysian bike industry for the various contributions to local motorsports at a special tribute awards presentation themed CASTROL POWER 1 BIKE NITE.
The event was organised to establish Castrol’s continuing commitment in supporting the Malaysian bike industry – the frontline racers and the people behind the scenes – and its sponsorship of the San Carlo Honda Gresini Racing Team in Moto GP.
“Biking is populated by passionate individuals who take the sport seriously,” notes Mark Ng, Castrol’s Head of Marketing. “Whether they are perfectionists or self-starters, bike racing is a sport and a lifestyle for them.”
The three main categories of awards on the evening were Castrol Motorcycle Community Achievement, Castrol Motorsports Rising Star, and Castrol Motorsports Life Achievement awards.
The San Carlo Honda Gresini Moto GP team made an exclusive appearance at the CASTROL POWER 1 BIKE NITE event to lend their support in honouring the true heroes of the Malaysian bike industry.
“It is a real privilege to celebrate this evening with some of Malaysia’s veteran and young bike fans,” said Carlo Merlini, Head of Sales and Marketing, Gresini Racing.
Moto GP is the world’s premier motorcycling championship race with a season of 18 Grand Prix in 14 countries. The event attracts the world’s top motorcycle manufacturers and an elite crop of international riders.
The Castrol brand earmarked to lead the motorsports industry is Castrol Power 1 4T, high-performance engine oil developed with Castrol Trizone Technology.
