TECHNICAL ADVISOR TO RAVENOL Ralf Schumacher has been providing RAVENOL with expertise and support as a technical advisor since 2016. This partnership is the result of a long and successful collaboration in Formula racing and karting. Together, they are now developing high-performance, polyalphaolefin- based (PAO) lubricants for motorsport and for use under particularly harsh operating conditions.
OIL TEST ANAL YSIS In order to develop innovative and competitive lubricants for sports cars, RAVENOL continually tests lubricants in different motorsports series, with different power units and under a wide range of operating conditions. www.ravenol.de
OIL TEST ANAL YSIS This includes continuous testing of used oil, trials of different formulas and innovative experiments with various additives and doses.
FROM THE RACE TRACK TO THE ROAD Modern motorsport is a platform for testing vehicle components and equipment under the harshest conditions for day-to-day use. These tests focus on performance and economic factors. The top priority here is to deliver premium quality products while at the same time lowering running costs for drivers. Lubricants used in motorsport have to have outstanding protective properties. At the same time, they have to meet all the requirements of leading car manufacturers for use in everyday driving situations, these include extended oil change intervals and reduced fuel consumption. OPTIMIZED EXTENDED OIL PROTECTIVE PROPERTIES CHANGE INTERVALS REDUCED REDUCED RUNNING COSTS FUEL CONSUMPTION www.ravenol.de
FROM THE RACE TRACK TO THE ROAD INCLUDED IN THE AUDI MOTORSPORT SPORTSCAR PARTS CATALOG FOR THE AUDI RS3 LMS TCR OFFICIAL OEM APPROVAL FOR DAIL Y USE IN CARS MANUFACTURED BY AUDI, BMW, PORSCHE, SEAT , SKODA, MERCEDES AND VW RAVENOL VMP 5W-30 is a prime example here – it is the only engine oil in Audi Motorsport’s sports car parts catalogue for the Audi RS3 LMS TCR – it is also OEM approved for daily use in cars manufactured by Audi, BMW, Porsche, Seat, Skoda, Mercedes and VW.
NEW PRODUCT LINE Pre-production cars are being increasingly used in modern motorsport. As such, it was a logical step for RAVENOL to develop its lubricants further, taking them to a level of performance capable of meeting the demands of the racing world. This resulted in a new range of mid-SAPS engine oils in ACEA C3 quality – RAVENOL RUP 5W-40 and RAVENOL REP 5W-30 – as well as a full-SAPS oil in ACEA A3/B4 quality – RAVENOL RSP 5W-30.

NEW PRODUCT LINE These polyalphaolefin-based (PAO) oils are designed for motorsport and for use under the most challenging operating conditions. Special additive content mixed with tungsten and trinuclear molybdenum was used in their development. POL YALPHAOLEFIN (PAO) SPECIAL ADDITIVE CONTENT TUNGSTEN TRINUCLEAR MOL YBDENUM
