<\/p>\nMotul has returned as official lubricants partner to the upcoming 2022 ROKiT F4 British Championship, supplying the engine lubrication for all the cars competing in this year’s series.<\/p>\n
The latest generation F4 cars are powered by a 1.4 litre turbocharged, Abarth 414-F4 dry sump four-cylinder engine which produces around 160bhp. This will be lubricated by Motul’s 8100 X-Power 10w\/60, which has been introduced as the controlled engine oil within the regulations, and will be used consistently with all of the cars in the championship throughout the 2022 season. Unlike Motul\u2019s 300V, the 8100 X-Power has been designed for everyday motoring use.<\/p>\n
Richard Scarbrough, sales director of Witham Motorsport, distributors of Motul products into the UK Motorsport sector said: \u201cIt is of course, a slightly unusual move to have a passenger car oil in a race series, but we hope it will show everyone that if 8100 X-Power is capable of lubricating these fantastic race cars, with all the extreme demands that a race series brings with it, then it is more than capable of handling anything during everyday road use.”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Motul has also extended its support for the 2021 F4 championship-winning team, JHR Developments. Last season, the Derbyshire-based team, founded and run by Steven Hunter, became the first to take all three F4 titles in the series – Drivers and Rookies championships with Matthew Rees, as well as the Teams\u2019 title.<\/p>\n
This year, the team cars will feature more prominent Motul branding, and the JHR stable is running three drivers: former Australian karter, Noah Lisle, as well as F4 returnees, Georgi Dimitrov and Joseph Loake – both of whom were race winners in 2021 and are expected to feature prominently this year.<\/p>\n
The 2022 ROKiT F4 British Championship certified by FIA begins at Donington Park this weekend, as part of the British Touring Car Championship programme and runs through to Brands Hatch over the weekend of 7th-9th October.<\/p>\n
