Team AirAsia Joins Forces With FXPM.com

New GP2 entrant Team AirAsia is proud to announce FXPM.com has joined as a team partner and will race with the team throughout the Asian and Main GP2 series in 2011.

Team AirAsia enjoyed a successful first shakedown test at Paul Ricard in November 2010 and is looking forward to competing with the new Dallara GP2 chassis and Pirelli tire combination, starting with the official pre-season tests and season opening race in Abu Dhabi in February.

FXPM.com is an online platform that allows private investors to trade the foreign exchange (forex) markets. FXPM.com's brokerage services are provided by FXPRIMUS Ltd, a firm regulated by the Mauritius Financial Services Commission, serving traders in 125 countries across six continents. The firm offers many benefits for the FX trader over other brokers, such as straight-through processing, independently-administered client trust accounts, shariah-compliant accounts and 24 hour multilingual customer support. FXPM.com was founded by a group of institutional and retail traders with an astute understanding of what is needed to ensure its clients can trade on an even playing field with all other traders.

Team AirAsia Team Principal Riad Asmat commented; “I’m delighted that not only is Team AirAsia on its way towards a new season, but we have also signed our first team partner in the dynamic forex brokerage FXPM.com. It is a very good example of how far Team AirAsia has already come in its short life that we are attracting commercial partners who see GP2 as a logical platform for their global marketing efforts. We are all excited about the commercial and brand benefits we will bring each other."

Shelton Fray, VP of FXPM.com comments: “We are delighted to work with Team AirAsia, a team that has the entrepreneurial drive of Tony Fernandes and his fellow Team Lotus shareholders and the proven expertise and track record of Mike Gascoyne’s technical team behind it. Team AirAsia gives us an excellent platform for our brand and we look forward to an exciting season with the team."
