Having worked closely with their team of designers and engineers for more than two decades, we have secured some fantastic results. I am immensely proud of this collaboration and everything we have achieved together – and we’re delighted to have Sparco back onboard as we push towards 2022 and a return to the top-step of the podium.”

Since the very beginning Sparco® and M-Sport have strategically worked together to develop solutions to improve the performance and safety of cars and drivers. Many technical solutions specifically designed for the team are seen in our catalogues and we believe this is key for continuous upgrade. Additionally, the respect and personal rapport built with Malcolm Wilson and his team has always had a strong value for us during these many years of collaboration.”
