Sumitomo Rubber Industries, Ltd. is pleased to announce that the 2016 FALKEN Motorsports Activity Schedule has been finalized. This year, FALKEN Motorsports will once again be participating in the "Nurburgring 24-Hour Race" in Germany. Last year, FALKEN Motorsports placed third overall at this world-famous race, which is widely considered to be the toughest endurance race in the world. This year, in addition to FALKEN Motorsports, SUBARU TECNICA INTERNATIONAL will also be competing using FALKEN tires for the first time. By providing high-performance tires for two top teams at this year's race, we aim to contribute to the growing popularity of motorsports while at the same time further enhancing the global value of the FALKEN brand, a brand that has already earned widespread recognition in Europe and North America.
