Great Starts and Finishes From The Lucas Oil Brand

British Drift Car

(September 4, 2020) – 

Impressive performances in the British Drift Car (BDC) Championship, Formula 2 and Formula 4 competitions are raising smiles as bright as a Slick Mist polish shine for Lucas Oil and its sponsored racing teams.

Despite the delayed start to a curtailed racing season, a series of good results are justifying the continued commitment to motorsport by the US oil, additives and workshop lubricants manufacturing brand.

Defending BDC Champion Ollie Evans is flying the flag for Lucas Oil for the first time this season and after a strong opening round in early August, is lying a close second with four more rounds to go. His partner Lucas Oil is the exclusive oil and additives sponsor for the 2020 season. Evans relies on Lucas SAE 20w50 Racing Oil for his engine protection, with Lucas 75w90 oil in the gearbox to protect against gear failure, heat and shock whilst running at high rpm.

British driver Dan Ticktum is proving to be one of the drivers to beat in F2 this season. A series of Podium finishes is keeping him and the Lucas Oil-sponsored DAMS Team in touch with the defence of their Team Championship title. Lucas has extended its sponsorship of the team after winning performances last year. DAMS is using a range of Lucas Oil products including L11 Racing gear Oil, Brake Cleaner, Lucas Slick Mist Polish, Interior Detailer, Lucas Metal Polish, as well as Tire & Trim Shine.

Meanwhile, 15-year-old American junior Jak Crawford has been busy collecting podium finishes in the German and the Italian F4 racing series. It’s his first season behind the wheel of the #52 Red Bull Van Amersfoort Racing Team car and he’s really taken to racing around some of the most famous European racing circuits.

The drivers are driving well and the cars have certainly got the pace to compete.

“A little extra luck next time out is all they seem to need to take the top spot, ” said Dan Morgan, Director of Sales & Operations at Lucas Oil Products.
