Shell Celebrates 60 Years Of Shared Ferrari Passion With Worldwide Ferrari Relay Tour (English)

24/02/2007

Jakarta Ferrari Relay Tour Will Stop at Shell’s Gatot Subroto Fuel Station

 

To celebrate 60 years of shared passion through Shell’s technical partnership with Ferrari, Shell is delighted to announce its partnership on the Ferrari 60th Anniversary Relay Tour.

 

“Relay Tour”, a worldwide rally that sees Ferrari touring 44 countries across five continents, kicked off in Abu Dhabi on the 28th January and culminates on the 25th June 2007 in Maranello, Italy, home of Ferrari. During each leg of the tour, the cars will stop at Shell service stations to fill up with Shell’s high quality fuels.

 

This vast relay provides the ultimate showcase for Shell high quality fuels, designed to demonstrate the power and performance, and borne out of 60 years of shared passion for performance with Ferrari. The result is a fuel for customers who understand that not all fuels are the same.

 

Bob Moran, Country Chairman and President Director, Shell Companies in Indonesia, said, “At Shell we know that all fuels are not the same, which is why we are committed every day to making better fuels for our customers and their cars. Each car is unique and Shell has the most suitable fuel for each of them.”

 

Shell development for high quality fuel has been the long term, working technical partnership forged between Shell and Ferrari across the Grand Prix circuits of the world. At each race, the Shell ‘Track Lab’ provides Shell scientists with a unique cutting-edge mobile laboratory enabling fuels to be monitored and tested under the most severe conditions. This development on the racetrack is then fed back into Shell’s road fuel development programs to benefit the everyday motorist.

 

In Indonesia, The Ferrari Relay Tour will start at Ferrari Headquarters in the TB Simatupang area, and will continue until the residence of the HE Ambassador of Italy, Dr. Francesco Greco where His Excellency will handover the baton.

 

After the baton handover, 35 Ferrari cars will fill up their cars at Shell’s Fuel Station in Gatot Subroto (before continuing to the Ferrari Shop at the Automall).

 

Eric Holthusen, Shell Global Solutions Fuels Technology Manager Asia-Pacific: “We are excited that Shell’s high quality fuel is the official fuel of the Ferrari Relay Tour, as this is a fitting way to celebrate over 60 years of shared passion. Our proud heritage with Ferrari has been a key component in our on-going fuel development, providing millions of everyday motorists with advanced technology designed to give a better driving experience.”

 

Shell and Ferrari’s technical partnership assists Shell to develop its fuel and work towards meeting the highest possible standards.

 

In Indonesia, Shells range of high quality fuels consists of Shell Super Extra (octane level 95), Shell Super (octane level 92), and Shell Diesel.  Shells fuels help keep your engine clean with the use of Special formulation Shell additives.
