Synonym of challenges always renewed and pursue of the Excellence, the Formula 1 World Championship constitutes an exceptional ground of experiment for developing new technological solutions.
The automotive lubricant has to improve the protection and the performance of Formula 1 on circuits, exactly there where the mechanical constraints undergone by the engine parts push the lubricant into terrible testing conditions. As genuine test bench of extreme conditions, Formula 1 requires a permanent optimization of the developed solutions and allows to to work out the technologies which, tomorrow, will be used on production cars.

The very best specialists of the various professions involved in the R&D process ...
The most demanding discipline of all motorsports, mobilizes considerable investments in Research and development. F1 contributes in such way to the optimization of numerous technical processes. Gathered within ELF Formula 1 team, the above-standards skills of these best specialists are also benefiting to the development of the lubricants designed to production cars.
This double responsibility of the Formula 1 Research Team allows to realize immediate and constant transfers of know-how towards consumer lubricants. The conception of consumer oil ELF also benefits from the same state-of-the-art skills : same tools of development, same methodology and degree of requirement as the one dedicated to the world-champions-Formula 1 lubricants !
Offer worldchampion lubricant to your engine
Wherever used in Formula 1 or in a passenger car, the main function of the lubricant is to optimize and make the functioning of the engine more reliable. In both cases, lubricants allow first of all an effective protection of the engine against the wear born from metals-metals friction. They have to resist to the mechanical constraints, to the oxidation and need to evacuate part of the heat produced by the engine in order to maintain an ideal temperature of functioning ...
In Formula 1, the exceptional resistance of ELF lubricants allow to hold exceptionally brought up temperatures of functioning . On passenger cars, it aims to always extended draining intervals. Formula 1 allows to know even better about the properties of basic oil and chemical additives. These properties are then optimized in different environments to take into account the particular requirements of the consumer applications and competition one.
