A new partnership is extended for Davanti
Davanti Tyres has extended its partnership with the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve (AIA) Racing School in Portimão, Portugal. As the AIA has recently announced it will host Formula 1 in the 2027 and 2028 seasons, this marks an exciting time for the partnership to continue.
The renewed three-year agreement will commence on 1 January 2026, giving the tyre manufacturer access to AIA’s fleet of Racing School cars fitted with Davanti’s Protoura Sport tyres.
Davanti will now have the opportunity to access and host activities on the Racing School’s Gold Course, which features a series of challenging driving exercises designed to improve agility and vehicle control.
Davanti’s partnership with AIA was first established in 2017. As one of the most technically challenging race circuits in the world, playing host to the European Le Mans Series and the FIM World Superbike Championship, and now looking ahead to Formula 1 in 2027 and 2028, it gives Davanti a unique opportunity to gain frequent feedback on its Protoura Sport tyre from driving professionals using the track. In due course, Davanti’s customers from around the world will also be able to experience the true capability of the tyres through an exhilarating branded track experience.
Miguel Praia, AIA Racing School Director, said: “Our drivers are highly qualified professionals, and they understand the importance of tyres as a safety feature. They have developed complete confidence in Davanti since we began this partnership, as the tyres handle well and provide all the feedback and control needed to drive safely and professionally.”
Sean Maddocks, Davanti Tyres Sales Director for the UK & Ireland, said: “The AIA is one of our longest-running partnerships, and over the years it has given us invaluable live feedback on our products, which has undoubtedly contributed to the quality and capability of the Protoura Sport tyre. It has also allowed us to demonstrate the tyre to our valued customers in an exciting, premium track experience, helping to strengthen relationships and cement the product as a competitive player in the market. With the circuit also announcing its partnership with Formula 1 in the 2027 and 2028 seasons, it shows that as a racing venue, it really is one of the most renowned in the world.”
