Last June, Castrol Global Lubricants announced an exciting new partnership signed with FIFA to be a primary sponsor of the 2010 and 2014 World Cup football championships.

As part of that program, Castrol Australia also announced its renewed commitment to its national motor sports activities, the cornerstone of its technological leadership strategy in lubricants.

This Australian motor sport strategy, activated in multiple racing venues around the country with many of Castrol's key strategic business partners, will continue to be showcased through the company's relationship with Victor Bray Racing.

That relationship has entered its 19th year in 2009, and now includes primary sponsorship on both Victor's race and burnout show car in the ANDRA Top Doorslammer Series, In addition to primary support for Victor, Castrol will continue to provide sponsorship support for Victor's son Ben.

"Castrol's sponsorship of Victor Bray is one of the longest running global partnerships in motor sport history. It's not just a sponsorship it's a partnership. Victor works very closely with our technical department to test the performance of our products under extreme conditions. We are very proud to have Victor and Ben as part of the Castrol family. Their passion and enthusiasm toward our company and our products are second to none."
