SPORTTOTAL wins binding major contract

* Technical equipping of the Grand Prix racing track in Rio de Janeiro
* Order volume in the lower double-digit million euro range
* Work to commence in 2019 and due for completion in 2020
* Formula 1, MotoGP and 24h Races ahead
* JR Pereira, CEO of RIO MOTORSPORTS, expects further opportunities

Cologne/Rio de Janeiro, May 22nd 2019. SPORTTOTAL AG has signed a binding agreement with RIO MOTORSPORTS LLC, Arlington (US), for the technical equipping of a racing track project in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil). SPORTTOTAL had already signed a preliminary agreement back in August 2018. As already announced, the anticipated order volume lies in the lower double-digit million euro range for the first construction leg of the New Rio de Janeiro Racetrack. SPORTTOTAL is expected to generate a typical double-digit EBIT margin for its VENUES (international project) business and will bear the cost of prefinancing. Work on the Rio de Janeiro racing track is expected to commence in 2019 and is scheduled for completion in 2020.

SPORTTOTAL prevails in the competition against large corporations
Grand Prix races are to take place again in Brazil as from 2020. With this in mind, RIO MOTORSPORTS has signed a contract with the Spanish Dorna Sports Group that represents MotoGP, among other clients. In its VENUES business, SPORTTOTAL AG is responsible for race control, the seamless video monitoring of the racing track, timekeeping, a media distribution system, starting lights and electronic flags, wireless connections, voice over IP and developing the entire data network. RIO MOTORSPORTS and SPORTTOTAL have entered into an exclusive partnership for this project. JR Pereira, Founder and CEO of RIO MOTORSPORTS: "The approval for the construction of the Rio de Janeiro racetrack and the MotoGP, Formula 1 and 24h Race going to the tourist capital of Brazil represent a turning point in Brazilian motorsport and a change to the modality in the world. This transformation and openness to new perspectives wouldn't be possible without the fundamental partnership with SPORTTOTAL. There is no doubt that, being next to such a renowned company, we gain even more respect in the whole world market. We are just in the beginning. Soon, with the development of our sports park, we will open other business fronts for SPORTTOTAL in Brazil." SPORTTOTAL-Manager Thomas Hellemann, who can rely on the international licensed race directors, racing managers, track safety experts as well as time keepers and technical supervisors in his team: "We are proud to have won this project in the competition against major corporations. Our high degree of specialization and expertise are clearly paying off."
