(MENAFN – Blue Apple Mediacom) Gulf is proud to announce that Gulf Formula Elite is now the first fill lubricant in all McLaren Automotive supercars and hypercars leaving the McLaren manufacturing center in Woking, Surrey, England.
As part of a long-term partnership, McLaren Automotive will also offer its customers access to Gulf Formula Elite, a high-performance lubricant, as a preferred supplier.
Gulf and McLaren Automotive technology teams have worked together to develop and test a lubricant that provides the ultimate protection for McLaren’s high-performance V8 and V6 engines, even in the most extreme conditions, to keep them performing at peak levels.
Gulf Formula Elite uses Thermoshield technology to meet McLaren’s demanding performance and efficiency requirements by forming a tough coating on all critical engine parts for enhanced wear protection. Gulf Formula Elite maintains optimal temperature by helping to dissipate heat, actively preventing oil deterioration and helping to improve deposit control.
Gulf Oil International Chief Executive Officer Mike Jones said:
“Our technical partnership with McLaren Automotive allows Gulf to offer its industry-leading expertise and world-class R&D capabilities to accelerate the development of high-performance technologies like the Gulf Formula Elite.”
“We are committed to supporting McLaren Automotive in its relentless pursuit of being the best and are excited to share our latest world-class product – Gulf Formula Elite – with McLaren customers.”
Gareth Dunsmore, Chief Marketing Officer, McLaren Automotive said:
“McLaren and Gulf’s long-standing partnership is all about engineering excellence that enables high performance, so we’re excited that our supercar and hypercar customers will experience and benefit from the Gulf Formula Elite.
“Together with Gulf, we have carefully selected and tested Gulf Formula Elite to ensure that it not only protects our high-performance engines, but also contributes to sustainable performance in the most extreme conditions.”
Gulf’s association with McLaren began in 1968 and has continued in both Formula 1, the Can-Am Series where the partnership won over 40 races and the 24 Hours of Le Mans in the 1990’s with the famous McLaren F1 GTR continued. The two cult brands reunited in July 2020.
Gulf will also feature prominently in McLaren Automotive’s PURE customer events, held around the world and throughout McLaren Automotive’s global dealer network
