Ferodo Ready to race promotion 2011 - Winners

This video brings you a brief report of the ‘Ready to Race Challenge’. This Pan-European promotion encouraged workshops to buy more Ferodo products. How? Simple: the more they bought, the more chances they got to compete in the online racing challenge game. And compete they did: more than 45 000 distributors and workshops took part. Two racers each won a fantastic Fiat 500 Abarth, whilst others were awarded with weekends away to Monaco, iPads or home entertainment systems. Congratulations to everyone!

Safe and sure braking, every time you need it

Driven by performance and innovation since 1897, Ferodo® designs and develops brake pads that give drivers more control over their vehicles and workshops a firm grip on their businesses. We were the original inventors of modern friction materials, dating back to when automobiles were first manufactured.

Today, our range includes top brake pads for bicycles, motorcycles, racing cars and bikes, tuning applications, standard road cars, vans, trucks, and even trains. Our experience in brake friction led us to develop other brake-related products such as brake discs, hoses, hydraulics, fluids and shoes. The Ferodo name has in fact become synonymous with braking.

All our products are tested to Original Equipment (OE) standards, and are quite often developed for the vehicle manufacturers themselves. This ensures unrivalled performance under all temperatures and conditions. Shorter stopping distances and reduced brake noise make for a safer and more comfortable drive. The fact that our parts are easy to install and last longer just adds to the appeal.

With Ferodo, you’re in control.

Always the right part

Vehicles are almost as unique as the people who drive them – with different top speeds, acceleration capabilities, weights, brake systems and overall design, all of which influence the ability to come to a safe stop.
