The finale of the F4 SEA (F4 SEA) Championship season 2017-18 will be presented here in Sepang from 13 to 15 April 2018, and will be fueled by Petron Malaysia – the official fuel and engine oil partner of the F4 SEA Championship.
“We are pleased how the race has turned out this season and congratulate the AAA group promoters of F4 SEA on their successful season. We are proud to fuel this Championship with our most advanced product innovation – Blaze 100 Euro 4M complemented by our engine oil Blaze Racing Fully Synthetic. This partnership allows us to prove the top-notch quality of our fuels and lubricants are not only suitable for the everyday motorists but a right fit for formula racing,” Petron Malaysia Head of Retail Business Faridah Ali said.
“F4 SEA is exclusively using Petron’s performance products such as Blaze Racing Engine Oil and Blaze 100 RON for peak performance” Formula 4 SEA promoter Peter Thompson said.
First in fuel technology and innovations, Petron made its mark launching the first and only 100 RON premium gasoline in the Malaysian market in January 2016. Blaze 100 is formulated with TriAction Advantage – a triple action formula that delivers better power, better engine protection and better mileage, providing excellent engine responsiveness, optimum power and faster acceleration. Blaze 100 is proudly made in Malaysia and is produced at Petron’s Port Dickson Refinery.
Blaze Racing Fully Synthetic provides optimum engine protection under extreme driving conditions, especially in motor racing. Blaze Racing is specially formulated with TS3™ (Thermal Stress Stabilizing System), an exclusive technology to keep the oil stable at extreme temperatures and engine stress.
The season finale will see Malaysian drivers competing in the fifth and final round seeking to end the season in a blaze of glory. The finale from April 13-15 will feature six races in which the Malaysians are aiming to dominate.
“The season thus far has been competitive and we expect this final round to be even tougher as the drivers jostle for the best positions. For many of the drivers, including the Malaysians, securing strong results in the final round will be an awesome way to conclude the season,” Peter commented.
Petron as a major partner in F4 SEA seeks to promote Asian auto sports and help develop local young professional drivers.
The Malaysian drivers consisting of highly talented, up and coming motor race professionals Nazim Azman, Isyraf Danish, Arsh Johanny and Armand Johanny will also be fired up to deliver their best in front of home fans.
“Apart from being the last round to create an impact this season, Nazim Azman, Isyraf Danish, Arsh Johanny and Armand Johanny will have to push themselves to the edge in their quest for success,” said Peter.
For the Malaysians, finishing on a high in the final round will significantly raise their confidence levels as they pursue their dreams – to be world class racing drivers.
“I’m looking forward to the final round which will be extremely competitive. All the drivers on the grid will have the same thoughts on their minds, everyone will be aiming to win or at least make the podium,” said Nazim Azman, who hit the headlines earlier this season after a blistering victory in the opening F4 SEA round in Sepang.
Nazim, who also competes in Europe, along with other Malaysian drivers, will be up against the likes of Daniel Cao (China), Kane Shepherd (Thailand), Ugo De Wilde (Belgium) and other foreign competitors.
“We were very excited watching the earlier rounds which were all competitive and featured high quality racing. The action will continue in the next round and it is our hope that racing fans will come out and support these young talents”, Faridah added.
The Formula 4 SEA event supports the Malaysian Championship Series (MCS) when it stages the finale of the Championship from 13 to 15 April 2018.
Entrance to the race is free and the public are encouraged to give support to Malaysian drivers.
