Top tier karting team Patrizicorse has formed a partnership with world leading lubrication company Motul through their Australia Distributor Link International. Patrizicorse will benefit highly from Motul’s extensive range of high end factory line products, including the 800 Factory Line engine oil, Kart Grand Prix 2T engine oil, Gear 300 Range (for the KZ2 gearbox karts) and the famous factory line Motul Chain lube. Alongside this the Patrizicorse Mechanics and Drivers will have the top line Brake Clean, Chain Clean, Helmet Cleaner and Shine & Go spray, just to name a few of the products at hand for their use.

Alongside the Motul range of products through the Australian Distributor Link International, Patrizicorse will also be supplied the world famous and number 1 chain of choice for the KZ category, the RK Racing Chain.

Patrizicorse Founder and Team Manager Michael Patrizi is extremely delighted with the new Partnership. “Firstly a big thanks to Motul, RK Chain and Link International. Having the technical support of these world leading product gives us that extra edge on our competitors, which in karting 1 tenth of a second could be 10 positions on the grid. Having Motul right behind us eliminates that element of guess work as we know we are using the best lubricant for our engines, gearboxes and chains on the market.

“Having Link International and Motul recognize the opportunity to partner with my team Patrizicorse truly shows we are doing what we set out to do, and that is to be a leading Kart Race Team in Australia which provides drivers the opportunity to learn the grass roots of motorsport, from not just winning but all the other elements of what a racing driver needs to know to make a career.

“I have always said karting is a big passion of mine. Patrizicorse has some exciting news coming, with an expansion of great top young drivers joining our team. I am really excited about our future, and with factory support from Birel Motorsport for our young drivers if they want to move to Europe for karting, to the support we have now from Motul, it’s all up from here. ”

Patrizicorse currently has 3 full time drivers in the CIK Stars of Karting Series: Kyle Ensbey KZ2, Daniel Currey KZ2 and Courtney Gough Tag Light. Patrizicorse also has Hayden Patrizi in the WA KZ2 series and Oliver Bayliss, son of 3 times world champion Troy Bayliss, in the Rookie Category. Oli is juggling karting with flat track motorcycle racing and was recently crowned the 85cc 4 stroke Australian Champion for his age group on his first attempt.
