Bickers, UK distributor of renowned oil and lubricant specialist Motorex, is celebrating another successful year of competition on the world stage for the Swiss firm, as it took its tally of world titles to 118 after adding another eight to its collection in 2018, in a year that also saw the brand take its maiden MotoGP podium.

Motorex picked up a fourth consecutive FIM Supercross World Championship early in the year, with Jason Anderson adding to Ryan Dungey’s three-in-a-row from 2015-2017. There were also back-to-back MXGP and World MX2 titles, as Jeffrey Herlings and Jorge Prado respectively added to Antonio Cairoli and Pauls Jonass’ wins from 2017.

2018 also saw Motorex power five more riders to world championship glory, with Toby Price winning the Cross-Country Rallies title, while in the world of enduro Cody Webb was crowned Super Enduro World Champion. Brad Freeman, Matteo Cavallo, and Ruy Barbosa were all Enduro World Champions in the E1, Junior, and Youth classes.

The culmination of this year’s MotoGP season also saw Motorex make history with its first podium in the premier road-racing championship, as Pol Espargaro – a former Moto2 champion with Motorex – finished third at Valencia.

Bickers managing director, Derek McMartin, explained: “118 world titles is a lot by anyone’s reckoning, and to achieve eight in one season shows how many top teams and riders rely on Motorex to deliver the levels of performance required to succeed at the highest level. Motorex has won world titles in motocross, enduro, supersport, Moto2, Moto3, supermoto, and rally, and we’re incredibly proud to be involved with such a professional brand delivering quality products to riders everywhere, and we look forward to toasting more success in 2019 and beyond.”

Motorex offers a wide selection of engine and gearbox oils to suit a range of machinery, as well as suspension oils, coolant, chain lube, and other maintenance, care, and cleaning products.
