Giti Tire returns as official race tires for FRMEC and F4ME
Singapore – Giti Tire returns in 2025 as the official race tires for the FRMEC and F4ME, providing teams with the most advanced competition tires developed to deliver top performance, with excellent road grip and stability.
“The GitiCompete GTR1 tires used in the races have excellent road grip, are stable and easy to control, allowing drivers to go faster around corners and even faster on straights” shared Mr Mark Zhu, Motorsport Manager at Giti Tire. “The FRMEC and F4ME competitions bring together the world’s top young drivers. This combination of talent and challenges of the tracks push the limits of man and machine, making these races the best testing ground for these ultimate-performance tires. The accumulative experiences and data from these races will help us further develop our technologies and improve our range of civilian tires.”
The 2025 season brings 55 young races to the Yas Marina Circuit and the Dubai Autodrome in the United Arab Emirates, but this year poses a new challenge to drivers, cars and tires as the race ventures into Doha, Qatar, at the Lusail International Circuit. This 5.4-kilometer features predominantly straight, medium- and high-speed corners. The Lusail International Circuit is an exciting contrast to the sharp turns of the tracks in the UAE and presents a contrasting opportunity for all to witness the adaptability of Giti tires to the different demands of the circuit.
“It is an honour for Giti to contribute to and witness the growth of the young racers at the 2025 FRMEC and F4ME,” commented Ms Shiroo Chia, Deputy General Manager, Rest of World Marketing at Giti Tire, when addressing the importance of these races to Giti. “As these racers climb the ranks to higher levels of races, Giti is also driven to improve our performance and join them at realising higher levels of motorsport excellence.”
Closing an exhilarating season opener, British talent, Freddie Slater from the Mumbai Falcons took home the FRMEC win, while Emanuele Olivieri clinched the win in the F4ME. While these individual successes are praise-worthy, the season has only started, with honours to be strongly challenged in both the individual and team fronts.
