This weekend, Renault Group and #Castrol will celebrate a milestone at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix; 100 Formula 1 Grands Prix together. Both Alpine #F1 Team’s A521 cars will feature a specific “100 races” logo on the engine cover and a new “Renault recommends Castrol” logo on the rear wing, reinforcing the strength of the #partnership between the brands.
Castrol has been the Team’s official lubricant supplier since 2017 following Renault Group’s return to Formula 1. For almost five seasons, #Castrol has supported Alpine #F1 Team’s on-track activities by delivering advanced lubricants that help improve efficiency and performance today while developing lubricants for both race cars and road cars of the future.
bp and #Castrol have provided advanced fuels and engine oils, gear and hydraulic oils, greases and brake fluid, as well as a range of high-performance industrial lubricants to the Team’s technical centres in Enstone and Viry-Châtillon since 2017.
Off-track, Renault Group selected #Castrol as its aftersales’ global service fill engine oil lubricants partner, supplying jointly branded Renault - #Castrol products globally and enabling Renault customers and dealerships to benefit from the advanced technology from the track.
The two companies are also working together to explore future opportunities to broaden their relationship in the rapidly evolving mobility market.
As an official partner, we’re more than just a badge on the car. The Renault Group’s vision is for Alpine to be the best team in Formula 1, and it’s a vision we share at #Castrol. We’re delighted to celebrate this milestone together with Renault Group and wish the team the best of luck in this weekend’s races.
A.S. Ramchander, Vice President - Marketing, Castrol
This weekend is an important milestone for Renault Group and #Castrol, two leading brands with cutting-edge technologies. More than just a number, 100 Grands Prix represent the maturity of our #partnership, which allows us to push the technical boundaries to the limit, both in Formula 1 and off-track. I wish all the best to Fernando and Esteban for the race!

Castrol and bp have been very significant and loyal partners for 100 races. We are proud of our #partnership, which has contributed important steps in technology and performance that have greatly influenced our journey as a team. Together we achieved our first podiums and win and we look forward to a bright future that encompasses innovation, vision and further success. Off-track, we are proud to pass on the benefits of this innovation to the many road car users now and in the future.
