DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Motul has been named the title sponsor of the upcoming IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship race on the Charlotte Motor Speedway ROVAL.

The MOTUL 100% Synthetic Grand Prix is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 10 at 8 p.m., airing on NBSCN. The 100-minute race will feature competition from the WeatherTech Championship GT Le Mans and GT Daytona classes on the ROVAL’s 2.28-mile, 17-turn road course that incorporates a portion of the 1.5-mile oval.

It will mark the first WeatherTech Championship race at the facility in Concord, N.C., and is part of a busy motorsports weekend that includes NASCAR Cup Series and Xfinity Series races on the ROVAL and an American Flat Track event across the street at The Dirt Track at Charlotte.

“We’re thrilled to continue to grow our support for the series and help IMSA bring racing to the legendary ROVAL, according to Celso Pierre, Motul USA General Manager. “A stop at Charlotte Motor Speedway is a dream come true for the teams and fans, Motul is honored to be involved.”

Motul already serves as entitlement sponsor for the Motul Petit Le Mans at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta, which is typically the season finale except in the pandemic-altered schedule of 2020. This year’s 10-hour Motul Petit Le Mans takes place Oct. 17, a week after the MOTUL 100% Synthetic Grand Prix.

Throughout the MOTUL 100% Synthetic Grand Prix weekend, Motul will promote it Mobile Racing Lab which will make its IMSA debut at the Motul Petit Le Mans, October 14-17. Coming straight from the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the Motul Mobile Racing Lab analyzes oil samples on-site to give IMSA competitors vital information on engine wear within their race cars as they prepare for the 10-hour race.

In addition, Motul will provide fans in attendance with the unique opportunity to put this same technology to use to test the engine oil in their street cars.
