Mahindra Racing signs sponsorship agreement with Dainese and AGV

Mahindra Racing riders Danny Webb and Marcel Schrötter took to the track for the opening round of the new Moto3 World Championship in Qatar this weekend (6-8 April) sporting Dainese leathers and AGV helmets after the team struck a sponsorship deal with the Italian company, a leading manufacturer of protective clothing and gear for motorcyclists. The pair’s Mahindra Racing team will also be clothed by Dainese for the 2012 season.

With motorcycling firmly established as the foundation of the company, Dainese has gone on to use its expertise in safety technology and fabrics to develop a range of clothing for other sports and team-wear that will benefit the Mahindra Racing team throughout the varied and intense conditions of its 17-race season.

“We are very pleased that Mahindra Racing’s riders and personnel will benefit from an association with two of the best-established, most-iconic and technologically-advanced names in rider safety,” explained Mahindra Racing CEO Mufaddal Choonia. “Dainese/AGV has chosen to support the team because they are excited about what we have set out to achieve in the sport and we are looking forward to a long and fruitful partnership with them.”
