New Delhi: Indian Oil Corporation Ltd has made a grand entry as the official fuel partner of Asia Road Racing Championship (ARRC) - 2024 with its latest superior performance fuel offering, ‘STORM-Ultimate Racing Fuel, according to the state-owned oil giant’s statement.

STORM fuelled all the racing bikes during the opening round of the Championship at the Chang International Circuit in Buriram, Thailand.

The ARRC Championship will travel across Thailand, China, Japan, Indonesia, Malaysia, with the finish line in Thailand, the company said on Friday. Indian Oil has been given the role as the Official Fuel Partner for the Championship for a three-year period across all ARRC events, for fuelling the participating bikes with ‘STORM-Ultimate Racing Fuel’.
