MOBIL 1 MARKS 50TH ANNIVERSARY WITH CELEBRATORY RACING LIVERIES
In Australia, Walkinshaw Andretti United (WAU) recently debuted its celebratory livery
Mobil 1 is celebrating its 50th anniversary by showcasing over 40 specially designed motorsport liveries and paint schemes from around the globe.
These unique 50th designs feature a gold Mobil 1 logo along with a gold Mobil Pegasus. The celebratory liveries are appearing in various racing categories including Formula 1, MotoGP, NASCAR, WEC, IMSA, NHRA and Australia’s Supercar Championship.
Walkinshaw Andretti United (WAU) debuted their celebratory livery at the recent Sydney Super Sprint.
Here, Chaz Mostert and his #25 entry made the most of the fresh look by racking up back-to-back race wins on Saturday and Sunday – his first race weekend clean sweep in nine years.
Many other teams sporting the gold 50th livery have also seen considerable success on the track in 2024.
“We are thrilled to bring these special paint schemes to life for such a historic anniversary,” Mobil 1 Director of Global Sponsorships, Robert Shearer, said.
“These liveries exemplify our collaborations in lubricant innovation in the world of motorsports. The designs not only pay homage to the 50-year legacy of Mobil 1 but also capture the essence of speed, performance and teamwork.”
Since Williams F1’s success with Mobil 1 in the mid-70s, Mobil 1 says it has consistently set the standard in the motorsport arena.
As “the world’s leading synthetic motor oil brand,” Mobil 1 says it has long been the preferred choice for the world’s top race teams.
Rather than just a sponsor, Mobil 1 explains it will typically join as a technical partner.
It says that this way, it can leverage its significant engineering expertise to work hand-in-hand with race teams to maximise overall performance and achieve race-winning results.
Some years ago, Red Bull F1’s pioneering engineer and Chief Technical Officer, Adrian Newey, credited Mobil 1 as a key factor in the RB18’s championship dominating performance.
Mobil 1 says this legacy of technical relationships combined with pioneering innovation has enabled numerous race teams to achieve extraordinary success over the past 50 years.
From hands-on experience, Mobil 1 says automotive technicians, race drivers, race teams and leading automotive manufacturers attest to Mobil 1’s ability to deliver absolute performance and outstanding protection under the extreme conditions imaginable.
