Through close collaboration with IMSA and the OEMs, VP Racing engineered R80 specifically for the GTP class to deliver sustainability with performance. To ensure the highest quality components are used, VP globally sourced advanced renewable components used in the R80 formulation. This environmentally friendly, sustainable fuel will help reduce emissions and give the world-class performance expected of a VP fuel. Specific R80 features include …

** Un carburant formulé avec de la biomasse non alimentaire 64% Gen 2
** Au moins 55% de réduction de CO2 par rapport aux carburants précédents
** Toutes les performances nécessaires ont fait leurs preuves sur le circuit Rolex 24

R80 did indeed perform and impress the race teams as they experienced this new generation of fuel and racing. “There is a really cool renewable fuel in this car,” said David Salters, President of Honda Performance Development. “It’s great because it’s a new thing. We are cutting edge.”

“Sustainability is one of the pillars of our new GTP class,” said IMSA Senior Vice President, Marketing and Business Operations David Pettit. “As our technical team developed plans for the next generation of our top prototype class, it quickly became clear that renewable fuels and hybrid technology were vital to earning commitments from our manufacturers to participate. We are proud to partner with VP Racing on the introduction of R80 and are committed to building toward 100 percent renewable fuel in the future.”

Les voitures de sport GTP utilisent un groupe motopropulseur hybride à source unique et fonctionneront exclusivement au carburant renouvelable R80.
