Davanti Tyres, a prominent name in the UK’s mid-range tyre market, has been announced as the official technical partner and commercial sponsor of the MINI CHALLENGE CLUBSPORT championship. This dynamic collaboration begins in January 2025 and marks a significant milestone in Davanti Tyres’ racing ambitions.
A Winning Formula: Protoura Race Tyres
At the heart of this three-year partnership lies the debut of Davanti’s first track-specific tyre, the Protoura Race. Engineered for ultimate track performance, the Protoura Race tyre has been rigorously tested at world-class venues like Silverstone and Spain’s Calafat Circuit. This semi-slick tyre promises to elevate the MINI CHALLENGE CLUBSPORT to new heights with features such as:
- Superior Wet Weather Control: A directional tread pattern ensures maximum grip on damp tracks.
- Enhanced Driver Feedback: Strong carcass construction aids precision under intense cornering forces.
- Optimised Grip Compound: Boosts braking and acceleration for peak performance.
BMTR Motorsport will supply and fit the Protoura Race tyres, ensuring a consistent standard across the championship.
High-Profile Visibility and Action-Packed Racing
As part of the sponsorship, Davanti Tyres’ signature orange branding will adorn all race cars, amplifying the brand’s presence during race weekends. The MINI CHALLENGE CLUBSPORT, celebrated for its adrenaline-fueled competition, will commence its first race on 17th – 18th May 2025, at Silverstone—the iconic home of the British Grand Prix. Each race weekend will feature free practice, qualifying, and three intense races, putting the Protoura Race tyres through their paces.
Driving Forward
Beyond providing tyres, Davanti Tyres and MINI CHALLENGE CLUBSPORT aim to roll out additional initiatives over the three-year collaboration. Fans and competitors alike are encouraged to “watch this space” for further announcements.
For motorsport enthusiasts and competitors, this partnership promises not just enhanced performance but also a new era of visibility and engagement within the MINI CHALLENGE CLUBSPORT.
