MEYLE AG will again be partnering with the "tankpool24" racing team for the 2017 FIA European Truck Racing Championship, the European edition of the professionals' truck motor sports series. Building on the very successful results of the previous season, both partners have decided to renew their technical collaboration.

For the fourth consecutive year, MEYLE will supply the "tankpool24" team with brake discs and pads. For the upcoming 2017 season, the team can also rely on running again on MEYLE ORIGINAL engine mounts and rpm sensors and MEYLE ORIGINAL clutch boosters.

"tankpool24" drivers Norbert Kiss and André Kursim are determined to build on last season's successes. The team came in 5th in the 2016 season's overall ranking.

Sven Nielsen, Head of Strategic Product Development at MEYLE said, "We are impressed by the passion and creativity the drivers demonstrate in the run-up to and during the races. This approach ties in perfectly with our values, because it is what we have in mind when designing MEYLE parts."

The season kicks off at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria on 13 and 14 May.
