Sponsoring the Turkish Rally Championship, which holds an important place in Turkish motorsport, under the Shell Helix brand for the third time, Shell & Turcas CEO Emre Turanlı, said: "Motorsport in our country began with rallying in 1968. The Turkish Rally Championship continues to grow in popularity with each passing day, thanks both to the rising quality of the events and to our drivers' successes abroad. As the world's leading lubricants supplier, we are delighted to put our name, through our Shell Helix brand, to the rally championship, which plays such an important role in motorsport in Turkey."

Turanlı also referred to the value-adding properties of Shell Helix engine oils, continuing: "In the Turkish Rally Championship, cars compete against each other in extremely demanding conditions, on different asphalt and gravel stages, at times on very slippery surfaces. Our Shell Helix engine oils protect the engine in these tough conditions and help the car deliver its best performance. We are alongside the drivers not only with our name but also with our power of innovation."TOSFED President Eren Üçlertoprağı said they were delighted that the cooperation with Shell Helix is continuing, adding: "Shell Helix is a global brand that has successfully maintained solution partnerships with many different brands and teams across many different branches of motorsport for many years. We are extremely pleased that the partnership we began two years ago will continue in the new season.
