Halo By Orthene are ecstatic to announce our partnership with the globally renowned U.S based Flying Lizard Motorsports, working as technical partners across the team’s multiple category assault for the 2024 season and beyond.
Developed by Halo By Orthene in the UK, a division of Orthene – specialist brake fluid manufacturer since 1976, and who supply many other major brands, Halo P1 is the firm’s specialist motorsport fluid, offering the most advanced racing brake fluid on the market, thanks to the purest formulation process offering a superior dry boiling point and unmatched incompressibility in the most extreme circumstances.
Thanks to its market leading performance, Flying Lizard looked to Halo P1 in a bid to find that competitive advantage over its rivals.
“A lot of people assume high-temperature brake fluid is the same, but of course through decades of racing, we know that’s not the case. When the team at Halo approached us to test P1, we had initial confidence due to Orthene’s reputation, but the performance we found with P1 when testing was truly impressive. Brake fade is of course a big factor, but so too is pedal feel and this is where Halo P1 has really scored in testing.”
Darren Law, Team Principal, Flying Lizard Motorsports
In addition to the temperature levels this fluid can withstand, the other most notable factor is in the compressibility at high temperatures. This provides a much harder pedal for the driver. The soft or spongy feel is eliminated, and braking distance stays consistent with minimal fade which inspires confidence in the driver to keep pushing in extreme conditions.
Flying Lizard is just one of several high-profile teams who have made the switch to Halo P1. For team owners, managers or technical leads who have an interest in Halo P1, please contact Tara Williams at Halo.
