Marcel Lafontaine, President of Formula Tour 1600 Series, announced that he has reached an agreement to feature Groupe STCH as the title sponsor of the series.
A company specialised in transportation logistics, Groupe STCH is a long-time sponsor of veteran racer/media personality Didier Schraenen.
“Mr. Claude Hamel of Groupe STCH, a company based in Chateauguay, was key to ensuring that our series raced as part of the Formula 1 Grand Prix du Canada in 2016,” said Lafontaine. “He enjoyed the experience and the business benefits so much that he decided to step up his support for the complete season for 2017.’’
“The Formula Tour 1600 Groupe STCH Series is the perfect showcase for our way of doing business. We are also proud to help the drivers on their way up in open-wheel racing,” declared Claude Hamel.
The 2017 season of the Formula Tour 1600 Groupe STCH Series is made of six meetings and 17 rounds. In addition to the Canadian Grand Prix and the Trois-Rivières Grand Prix, the series will visit the Circuit Mont-Tremblant for three classic events, in May, July and September. The series will also visit Calabogie Motorsport Park, near Ottawa.
