Jubilee secures pole position 18 August 2014

The 2014 motorsport calendar is in full swing and once again Jubilee Clips will be used extensively across a number of series and models and at some of the most prestigious races, such as Le Mans and the Monaco Grand Prix.

This season has a special focus for Jubilee Clips as the company has reached an agreement to sponsor Amigo Motorsport driver Rob Gaffney in the single make UK Ginetta GT5 series.

If there is one thing racing drivers hate it is being beaten by an equipment failure, which means that selecting the right components is critical – which is why Ginetta specified the Jubilee brand. 

“In all of the years I’ve worked on racing cars I can honestly say I have never been let down by a genuine Jubilee Clip,” commented Fred Marsh, Amigo Motorsport’s chief mechanic. “Those guys have more experience than anyone in making hose clips and I can see why Ginetta specified Jubilee by brand.”

On Jubilee’s involvement in supply hose clamps, Ian Jennings, managing director at Jubilee Clips, said: “I am a big fan of motorsport, I love to see engineering pushed to the limits because going further and faster and competing for the win is what it is all about. Like our company, Amigo Motorsport is a family venture, proving that enthusiasm is more important than budget. They’ve been very welcoming to us and we were very happy to help them out with their ambitious plans.”
