Comtoyou Racing, Team Principal Jean-Michel Baert
“The fact that Comtoyou Racing has been one of the benchmarks in touring car racing in recent years, is also thanks to the quality of WinmaX products. The collaboration between us is very close and they are regularly present at our side on the racetracks to obtain direct feedback from our drivers and engineers. This enables them to develop specific products which are even better. The brand is constantly on the lookout for new technologies, and they are not afraid to implement changes in record time to make us ready for the next race. WinmaX is truly one of the pioneers in the development and optimisation of brake pads, with three watchwords: performance, durability and service.”
Comtoyou Racing, Team Manager François Verbist
“It seemed obvious to us to extend this long-standing collaboration with WinmaX. We share the same desire to perform and innovate. Like us, WinmaX is constantly on the lookout for better performance, and never leaves anything to chance. We are delighted that WinmaX is working with us to optimise the braking of our new Aston Martin Vantage GT3. It is with great motivation and mutual confidence that we embark on this 2024 challenge, and I am delighted.”
MK KASHIYAMA WinmaX, President:Kashiyama Tsuyoshi
“Today, thousands of drivers and teams put their trust in us in disciplines as diverse as rallying, rally-raid and, of course, on the circuit, whether in competition or on track days.This technical collaboration with the Comtoyou Racing team on the Aston Martin Vantage GT3 is further recognition of our quality and reliability. It is accompanied by our presence in GT4, also with Aston Martins, as we will be partnering the Racing Spirit of Léman team in this category. By offering drivers hard and enduring braking, we want the WinmaX signature to be recognisable on Aston Martins in 2024!”
The Comtoyou Racing season kicks off on 5-7 April 2024 at the Circuit Paul Ricard for the launch of the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe. In the meantime, testing continues and braking, like all the other performance-related elements, is obviously part of the development work.
