Ring and Osram-sponsored car secures third in Championship
Lighting specialist, Osram and its auto accessory subsidiary, Ring, sponsored Tockwith Motorsport in the 2024 Southern European GT Championship and has now won third place in the Championship.
The Ginetta G50 in Osram and Ring livery raced to the top of the table and won third place in the Southern European GT Championship.
The companies decided to split the livery, with the front half decked out in the Osram logo and the rear in Ring, making it a striking car that will stand out on a busy grid.
The race season began with round one in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain in May and finished in Estoril, Portugal at the end of November.
Marketing director, Henry Bisson, commented: “We put a lot of focus on the consumer side of the business in 2024 and racing has been the perfect conduit to target drivers that are passionate about their vehicles and the products they use in those vehicles. Tockwith Motorsport is an incredible team and continues to maintain its proven track record, so we’re thrilled with place 3rd in the Championship.
“2024 was also Ring’s 50th anniversary, so when we were looking at how to celebrate the milestone, and this opportunity came up, with everything included in the sponsorship package, it seemed like a no-brainer – especially with how fantastic the car looks!
“Throughout the season, we’ve supplied a variety of product to the team, so that they not only use premium quality products, but we were also able to ask them for feedback on the products for future development. As well as the fact that the car looked fantastic, it’s these smaller aspects of sponsoring Tockwith Motorsport that make us particularly grateful to be able to partner with them.”
