RAVENOL Racing

RAVENOL is working closely with manufacturers, race engineers, and drivers to develop the most technically advanced lubricants available today. A result of this close connection between RAVENOL and European Motorsport was the founding in 2014 of a general partnership with Hockenheimring GmbH! Since 2004, the RAVENOL brand has become firmly established in virtually all forms of European Motorsport. After initially entering the national touring car series, over the years the fields of activity have steadily increased to the point where RAVENOL is now the Technical Partner to both teams and series in a wide variety of categories.

RAVENOL racing oils enjoy high respect throughout the European motorsport industry, especially from numerous engine and transmission manufacturers. Ongoing technical support is provided to several series, in particular the FIA Formula 3 European Championship, where RAVENOL is the official partner. Today they’re used by an ever increasing number of race and rally teams and series: ADAC Formel Masters, GT Masters, Procar, WTCC, Sports and Saloon Car Racing, Rallying, Truck Racing, and Motocross.

A Cut Above The Rest

RAVENOL mixes and bottles their own proprietary blend and brand of lubricants to the highest European O.E. standards within their own refinery and factory in Germany. Most motor oils and transmission fluids today are not actually manufactured by the brand name shown on the bottle. With a focus on price above quality, many oil corporations outsource, having a generic type of oil refined and bottled for them. This isn't the case with RAVENOL fluids. RAVENOL is unique in that they produce and blend their own oil and fluids ensuring total quality control.
