Manchester-based Molyslip will be giving visitors something to talk about when it exhibits its range of speciality lubricants in Hall Suzuki (Stand 71) at distributor Troy’s TMB 2023 event, being held at The Wing, Silverstone on 23 March. The company will bring to the stand the original James Hunt Formula III Molyslip Lotus 59 which was sponsored by the company back in the early 1970s.

Andrew Cunningham, Molyslip general manager, said: “Troy has been a valued distributor for our portfolio of lubricants for many years now. The annual TMB event is a fabulous opportunity to showcase our range and help support Troy. Bringing the Formula III Molyslip Lotus 59 is so appropriate given that the show also takes place at Silverstone. We are hoping it draws lots of interest and surprise.”

He added: “James Hunt won several races in his Molyslip Lotus 59, including coming second in heat one and winning heat two at Brands Hatch on 17 July, 1970. Hunt also famously crashed into Dave Morgan at Crystal Palace in October of that year.”
