Nova Motorsport has announced a long-term contract extension with Peter Auto, confirming the tire maker as the official supplier to Group C Racing, Classic Endurance Racing 1 (CER1), Classic Endurance Racing 2 (CER2) and the 2.0L Cup, and formally expanding the partnership to include Sixties’ Endurance.
Nova Motorsport will continue to supply competitors with Avon Motorsport tires, supported by the intellectual property and highly experienced technical personnel transferred from Avon to Nova following Nova Motorsport’s acquisition of Avon Motorsport’s assets from Cooper Tire in 2024.
The Peter Auto Sixties’ Endurance series begins with the EspĂritu De MontjuĂŻc, March 27-29, and concludes with the HSR Daytona Classic 24 Hour at Daytona Speedway, November 10-15.
Daniel Stanton, head of sales and marketing at Nova Motorsport, said, “We are proud to extend our long-standing partnership with Peter Auto, one of the most respected names in the historic and classic automotive racing community, through a new long-term agreement. This relationship marks the successful transformation of Avon Motorsport into Nova Motorsport, as Peter Auto enters the ASO/ACO era under the leadership of Marc Ouayoun.
“Historic motorsport sits at the heart of the Nova Motorsport business, and partnering with Europe’s premier historic race championships is the perfect expression of that focus. Adding the Sixties’ Endurance series, which concludes with the HSR Daytona Classic 24 Hour at Daytona Speedway in November, to the Nova Motorsport portfolio accelerates our core strategy and further aligns with our growth targets for the Nova Motorsport brand and Avon and Nova tire products in North America.”
Marc Ouayoun, managing director of Peter Auto, commented, “We are delighted to continue and expand our partnership with Nova Motorsport. This collaboration reflects a shared vision based on technical excellence and reliability to ensure authentic and competitive racing across all our series. This partnership also highlights our commitment to historic motorsport and its development, both in Europe and internationally.”
