Martial artists follow a strict diet prior to competing to ensure they have the power to deliver the performance needed to win. Muhammad Ali, Bruce Lee and our very own Johan ‘Jojo’ Ghazali are famed for fuelling up in a specific manner to keep them at the top of their game.
In much the same way, cars require a proper “diet” for peak performance on the road. With Formula One-derived technology, PETRONAS Primax 97 with Pro-Race is engineered for unbeatable power to deliver performance, which includes better engine power and acceleration as well as better responsiveness.
Success on the racetrack for your benefit
Winning a single Formula One race isn’t easy. Winning multiple races to secure eight consecutive Formula One World Constructors’ Championships seems like an impossible feat. However, that didn’t stop the Mercedes AMG PETRONAS F1 Team from achieving just that.
PETRONAS’ partnership with the Mercedes AMG F1 team has been instrumental in developing advanced fluid technology, forming a cornerstone in engineering Primax 97 with Pro-Race to meet the high-performance driving needs of modern engines.
This winning formula is the backbone of PETRONAS Primax 97 with Pro-Race, giving drivers a taste of racetrack performance in their everyday driving experience. The advanced formulation is specifically engineered to improve various aspects of an engine, first by removing up to 99.9% of deposits* that can hamper power. Remember, power equals performance, and retaining as much of it as possible is key.
Meanwhile, the world’s first Advanced Dual Friction Modifier – made up of 2-in-1 advanced chemistry – reduces engine friction by an additional 25%*, allowing engine components to move freely for a more responsive drive. The molecules work through two complementary actions.
Firstly, the unique formulation improves interaction between fuel and oil, contributing to improved fuel efficiency and lower carbon emissions. This enables a more efficient drive to take you further with every tank.
Here’s the thing: ordinary friction modifiers supplied by engine lubricants degrade over time due to heat, oxidation, and fuel dilution. It is worth noting that the dual friction modifiers in PETRONAS Primax 97 with Pro-Race continuously replenish the friction modifier compound in engine oil, while creating a protective layer at the cylinder walls to reduce friction for improved responsiveness and power.
Users speak up
Consistency is key to success, and it was revealed during a blind test conducted under real driving and road conditions that two out of three participants reported better performance when using PETRONAS Primax 97 with Pro-Race compared to other premium fuels they currently use.
70% of participants also reported feeling more power and responsiveness, no doubt a result of the advanced formulation that includes the Advanced Dual Friction Modifier to keep engines clean and performant.
Try the fuel of champions
With over 30 years of experience in motorsports and a driving force behind eight consecutive Formula One World Constructors’ Championships, PETRONAS is making its best fuel yours to use in your beloved ride.
PETRONAS Primax 97 with Pro-Race ensures your car’s engine delivers consistent performance with better responsiveness, even under demanding driving conditions.
