From Formula 1, touring cars through to hydrogen-powered racing cars: it's hard to imagine the world's race tracks without BWT and the colour pink today.
BWT in motor sports
Motor Sports
Pink - the colour of motor racing
Particularly in motor sport, the colour pink has become ubiquitous and a permanent fixture on racing tracks around the globe. In the elite class of motor sport - Formula 1 - pink remains a permanent fixture and the two pink racing cars sponsored by BWT are lining up on the grid as the BWT Racing Point F1 Team this year. BWT is also represented in touring car, where the drivers and riders regularly celebrate successes. Off the race track, BWT invests heavily in research and development, which in turn feeds into the motor sport activities. Particularly in the field of membrane technology, as used, for example, in hydrogen-powered vehicles, BWT is a pioneer. With FORZE Electric Racing, it has impressively demonstrated that this technology also has a great future in motor racing.

Formula 1
Having turned heads with the world’s first pink Formula 1 car in 2017 and building upon three successful seasons as Principal Sponsor, BWT and Racing Point have expanded their relationship in 2020 so that the team will be known as BWT Racing Point F1 Team.
BWTs pink racing cars also compete in the Formula 2 Championships. As official Title Partner of BWT HWA RACELAB, BWT accompanies up and coming stars on their way to the top.
