Cooper Tire: We want to make British Rallycross the best in the world

Just before Christmas, Motorsport UK announced it had selected Cooper Tire Europe as exclusive tyre supplier for the coming three British Rallycross Championship seasons, and as such is renaming the championship the Motorsport UK British Rallycross Championship 5 Nations Trophy Presented by Cooper Tires. The tyre maker says it is “excited” to extend its motorsport supply portfolio.

“Cooper rallycross tyres have enjoyed huge success across the globe,” comments Paul Coates, general manager, motorsport, Cooper Tire Europe. “I have seen the sport grow, in popularity and reach, in so many regions. We want to work with Motorsport UK and Lydden Hill to make our national championship the best in the world. We are excited to be able to supply everything from retros through to supercars with products that are designed and made in the UK.”
