Simsoa-VR managers Javier Aparicio and Vincent Keersmaekers are proud to announce Coca-Cola as main sponsor of the Simsoa-VR team 2007. Thanks to this deal Coca-Cola will get more publicity in the highest level of motorsport.

"In 2007, a unique mark of refreshing drinks known in more than 200 countries, will be part of a successfull team. An F1-team as Coca Cola Simsoa-VR Honda , without a doubt, is an excellent platform for our product at global level. It is an international, innovative and modern team and we are proud our mark will be represented on the cars". said CEO of Coca Cola.

Also, Simsoa-VR has closed an agreement with the manufacturing company of Rolex Watches for a 2 years deal. Rolex Watches is one of the most known and successfull watch companies.

Javier commented:

"I am delighted to welcome Rolex watches as minor sponsor. To have Rolex among our sponsors, with excellent results and with a great international fame, is very positive. Both companies (Rolex and Coca-Cola) are dynamic companies and with ambition of continuing growing and innovating. We hope this agreement will give us new victories in the future."

To complete the team-sponsoring, Simsoa-VR renewed the contract with Sony ericsson by 2 more years as minor sponsor. Javier and Vincent says: "As we look at the last year, Sony Ericcson and Simsoa-VR are two bussiness that function very well together. They share the same attributes: precision, reliability, high technology, dynamism and last but not least, success. This cocktail with the great popularity of the Simsoa-VR team and our will of collaborating with them, made this agreement possible.

Simsoa-VR also announce the new engine deal. The team will be powered by Honda the next 2 seasons. This was possible after Mapes-VO left the league last year. Vincent and Javier are extremely happy to get an engine as Honda. They showed good performances and they hopefully will keep this form as they provide a topteam.


The 2007 season will be a very interesting racing year as Simsoa-VR aimes are higher then last year. The sponsoring and the engine are an important part of this but what to do without drivers?!
This is why Simsoa-VR is proud to announce Belgian drivers Laurent and Vincent Keersmaekers as main drivers for the coming up season.
If one of the 2 drivers get injured or are not capable to drive, test drivers will be Javier Aparicio from Spain and new-signed Italian driver Francesco Passieri

The team launch is planned on March 8th at the historic track of Spa-Francorchamps (Belgium).
