The Gran Premi Monster Energy de Catalunya sees Dorna Sports begin a new collaboration with U-Mask, equipping all Dorna staff in the FIM MotoGP™ World Championship paddock with U-Mask’s world-leading face coverings. The partnership begins at the Catalan GP and will continue throughout the 2020 season.
The Covid-19 pandemic continues to necessitate the use of the MotoGP™ Covid-19 contingency plan in the paddock, a comprehensive protocol put in place to keep all those working and competing in the sport as safe as possible. As part of that plan, face coverings are mandatory for all personnel, including Dorna staff. This new agreement with U-Mask will now ensure the very best protection for all those working within the protocol, helping MotoGP™ to race on as safely as possible.
U-Mask is a U-Earth biotech product and part of the Pure Air Zone project, based in Milan. Truly ground-breaking, U-Masks both block air contaminants on the mask surface and also destroy them inside the mask via their Bio-Layer™ technology. This internal layer is a self-sanitising, natural and innovative way to maximise protection for both the wearer and those around them – ensuring the best defense for Dorna staff in the MotoGP™ paddock, at the same time as reducing the waste generated by disposable masks.
