Mission successfully accomplished: logistics for the MotoGP safety cars

Air + Sea Services, 17. February 2025

Our team recently faced an exciting challenge: our partner Sport Logistics Solutions (SLS) commissioned us to handle two safety cars and create the air waybill (AWB) for the transportation of the vehicles to the opening race of the MotoGP™ World Championship in Thailand. Despite unexpected hurdles, we managed to transport the vehicles to the race on time thanks to excellent cooperation with our partners.

The biggest challenges included delays in the delivery of the carnets by the courier service provider, missing dangerous goods markings and inadequate load securing, as well as several security checks that required additional adjustments.
To overcome these difficulties, we relied on close and fast communication with our partners. In cooperation with Qatar Airways Cargo, FCS Frankfurt Cargo Services GmbH and GIV Gefahrgut & Industrieverpackungs-Service GmbH, we were able to quickly organize a customs inspection. In addition, we were able to unload the vehicles and repack the spare parts and tires before the final security check to ensure the smooth running of the transport.
Thanks to this excellent cooperation and the quick reactions of everyone involved, we were able to load the vehicles onto the only available flight, which enabled them to arrive in Thailand on time. As a result, the safety cars were ready in time for the first race of the season.
We would like to thank all our partners and teams whose commitment and expertise helped to make this project a complete success.
