Cologne, Germany, 28 September 2023 – SPORTTOTAL LIVE GmbH, a 100% subsidiary of SPORTTOTAL AG, has prematurely extended its mandate for marketing the ADAC 24h-Race at the Nürburgring.

The initial five-year commitment ideally complements RAVENOL's activities at the Nürburgring. The extended cooperation is also an important milestone for RAVENOL. "With the title sponsorship of the legendary 24h, we are making our commitment in this hotspot of technical advancement even more visible", explains Martin Huning, Motorsport Director RAVENOL. "In the past years, numerous teams have proven that our products pass the ultimate endurance test: the use and even the victory in the 24h-Race at the Nürburgring as the toughest race for the most modern GTs and touring cars on the longest racetrack in the world. Now we step-up even more clearly as a convinced partner of this event and its protagonists." "We are very delighted to have found a new title sponsor in RAVENOL, who combines technical competence with a big heart for motorsport", says 24h-Race Director Walter Hornung. For him, the partnership means more than just sponsorship. "RAVENOL brings an outstanding technical know-how in the field of lubricants.

We look forward to a good and trustful cooperation."
