The new BMW M2 MotoGPTM security car will be introduced in Portimao as it enters its 25th year as the “Official Car of MotoGPTM”.
Beginning with the 2023 Portuguese Grand Prix, which runs from March 24 to 26, BMW M will be celebrating its 25th season as the Official Car of MotoGPTM. Since 1999, Dorna Sports and BMW M have had a strong association. The new BMW M safety car will be introduced in Portugal at the beginning of the anniversary season. Based on the brand-new BMW M2*, which had its world premiere in October, the new BMW M2 MotoGPTM safety car was created.
Franciscus van Meel, CEO of BMW M GmbH: “2023 is our 25th season as Official Car of MotoGP – a long-standing, close partnership like this is special in international racing. We would like to thank Dorna Sports for the great trust they have placed in us for a quarter of a century now. Since 1999 we have been striving to incorporate our values such as innovation, technology, emotion, and passion into our partnership with Dorna Sports as well. Our new BMW M2 MotoGP safety car is just one example of this. With it we are continuing our tradition of putting the latest BMW M high-performance automobiles at the service of MotoGP safety. Be it the safety car fleet, the BMW M Award, or our many other activities in the top level of motorcycle racing – we are proud that Fascination M has become an important part of the MotoGP.”
Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of Dorna Sports: “We are delighted to be joining BMW M in celebrating the 25th anniversary season of our partnership in 2023. In BMW M we have had a strong partner at our side for a quarter of a century; a partner with whom we have enjoyed superb collaboration in many different areas. We are very proud of this long-standing partnership that is never at a standstill, it gives plenty of fresh momentum each year. With the most innovative technologies, BMW M is taking care of safety in our sport for the 25th year now, and is a firm fixture in the MotoGP paddock with a wide range of activities. Here’s to a fantastic anniversary season in 2023!”
The new BMW M2 is an impressive example of high-performance performance car tradition in condensed form and with cutting-edge technology. The new BMW M2, with its small size and 460 horsepower TwinPower turbo in-line 6-cylinder engine, is the ideal starting point for a BMW M security car. The BMW M2 was equipped with a variety of safety car components for use on MotoGPTM racetracks. A roll bar, RECARO seats, a 6-point racing harness, a fire extinguisher, the safety vehicle roof bar, and the complementary front light are some of these elements. There are also a number of M Performance elements added, including the exhaust system, chassis, carbon wing mirror covers, diffusor, and rear wing. The standard livery for the BMW M safety car will be used for the BMW M2 MotoGPTM safety car. The 2023 safety car fleet also comprises numerous other BMW M safety, medical, and official cars, as well as BMW M 1000 RR safety bikes, in addition to the new BMW M2 MotoGPTM safety car.
