ROC: Motorsport’s best of the best – delivered by DHL
The Race of Champions (ROC) is an annual contest that brings together some of the world's greatest drivers from motorsport’s major disciplines and has been held for more than 25 years. This year, the event is heading to the United States for the first time to soak up the heat of Miami on January 21-22, 2017.
For this special premier, DHL will support the ROC as its Official Logistics Provider. The international shipping and logistics company will be in charge of transportation needs for the world’s fastest stadium race, including shipping the most precious piece of cargo, the famous ROC Winner’s Trophy, which will be awarded to the overall Champion of Champions.
The event showcases the best drivers in the profession and is a wonderful way to demonstrate the speed and passion of the DHL brand.
