SPONSOR FOCUS: MRTC

MRTC has been a specialist in the motorsport communication business for over 40 years. During this time, it has worked with some of the most prominent teams and organisations across the motorsport industry and many motorsport championships.

MRTC delivers a complete package of services which allows customers to concentrate on the race itself; delivering high quality systems and technical support, taking over the organisation of all aspects of communication.

For more than six years MRTC has supplied the team’s full communications solution - a complex radio system allowing communication between the engineer, drivers and pit crew including headsets, radios (incar and mobile), and repeater stations. The kit is manufactured by co-sponsor, Kenwood. MRTC’s Managing Director Jo Price tells us more:

What made you get involved with the team and why have you been a supporter for so long?

We’re extremely proud to be in partnership with Team BRIT. Watching the team continue to grow and flourish within the motorsport industry is truly inspirational. We are honoured to support such incredible individuals who, despite daily challenges, continue to thrive and inspire others.

Why is it so important to have the very best comms kit at the track?

Having the very best communication system at the track is extremely important which is why MRTC not only specialise in durable, reliable communications with high quality audio, but we continue to invest time and money into developing our products to deal with the unique challenges posed by the motorsport environment. The combination of a harsh operating environment with high temperatures, extreme vibration, constant ambient noise and variable terrain demand specialised products, MRTC are forward thinking and are constantly improving our products to overcome these obstacles.

What are your plans for the business for the rest of the year and into 2022?

MRTC are constantly developing and improving our products, we have some exciting projects in the pipeline at the moment and we are very excited to see these come to fruition over the coming months and into next year.

What are your predictions for Team BRIT over the coming year?

Team BRIT has achieved so much over the years we have been involved with them. Their plan for 2022 is to take part in the British GT Championship to get them nearer to being able to enter Le Mans. It would be absolutely amazing for Team BRIT to become the first all-disabled race team to enter Le Mans and it is a privilege to be involved with the team as they achieve this.
