Jaguar’s Advanced Aerodynamics Help Team Sky and New Pinarello Dogma F8
Jaguar has deepened its partnership with Team Sky, the British pro cycling team, by helping to develop its latest racing bike. The car maker, renowned for some of the world’s finest luxury saloons and sports cars, has used its advanced aerodynamic knowledge and facilities to help create the new Pinarello Dogma F8 bicycle, to be raced by Team Sky for the remainder of the 2014 season.
This is the first time Jaguar’s comprehensive technical capability has been used by the team, and marks the beginning of a new collaborative relationship between Jaguar, Team Sky and its family of partners and suppliers, including legendary frame manufacturer Pinarello. Jaguar is now an official ‘innovation partner’ with Team Sky.
The Dogma F8’s first race will be the Critérium du Dauphiné, which starts on June 8. Its major test this year will be on the Tour de France, which starts in Leeds on July 5. Team Sky and Chris Froome are the defending champions. Team Sky also won in 2012, with Sir Bradley Wiggins.
