Born in France but raised in Switzerland since he was a child, Harold’s love affair with motorsport began while still at school when he sampled karting for the first time.

His first outing in a competitive championship came in the USA, racing Formula Ford 2000s, before working his way through the single-seater ranks by competing in British F3, F3 Euro Series and World Series Lights.

However, it was in endurance racing where Harold really found his niche. His first taste of the discipline came in the V de V French Endurance Championship with Saulnier Racing in 2003 and ’04, before moving on to race both LMP1 and 2 machinery – the vanguard of sports-prototype design – over the next eight years.

Having made a name for himself racing at Le Mans with sportscar legend Henri Pescarolo’s eponymous team, and after two appearances at the Daytona 24 Hours, Harold was signed by Aston Martin Racing as an official factory driver for its new LMP1 project. While the following three years would be dominated by the diesel-powered Audis and Peugeots, Harold acquitted himself well by finishing fourth in the LMS standings, scoring overall victories in the Asian and American Le Mans Series, and finishing a career-best sixth at Le Mans.

When Aston Martin’s LMP1 programme closed its doors at the end of 2011, Harold was on the look out for a fresh challenge. He duly found it in the revived FIA World Endurance Championship with Swiss outfit Rebellion Racing who, like Aston Martin before, would be pitted against the might of factory manufacturers in sports-prototype racing’s top echelon. Nevertheless, a pair of privateer victories and further four podiums underlined Primat’s dedication to the cause.

After a near-decade competing in sports-prototypes, 2013 saw Primat switch to racing GT3 cars in the burgeoning Blancpain Endurance Series and German-based VLN championship. That allowed him to compete at another globally revered motor race, the 24 Hours of Spa, where he finished fourth after also contesting that year’s Bathurst 12 Hour for the first time.

In 2014 Harold and leading Mercedes-Benz GT squad HTP Motorsport will focus their efforts on three major endurance events...

8/9 February: Bathurst 12 Hour (AUS)21/22 June: 24 Hours Nürburgring (GER)26/27 July: 24 Hours of Spa (BEL) - BES round

...As well as the remaining Blancpain Endurance Series rounds...

12/13 April: Monza, 3 hours (ITA)24/25 May: Silverstone, 3 hours (GBR)28/29 June: Paul Ricard, 3 hours (FRA)20/21 Sept: Nurburgring, 3 hours (GER)

...And selected VLN events.

The first of these blue riband races, the Bathurst 12 Hour, represents the ultimate Australian endurance event and a modern classic amongst worldwide GT racing.

Taking place at the legendary Mount Panorama circuit – a venue made famous by its annual V8 Supercar race – Bathurst’s blue riband GT event has attracted some of the best-known international sportscar teams and drivers in recent years who relish the opportunity to take on both the mountain and Australia’s racing elite.

A strong debut there in 2013 saw Harold finish fourth overall, although a starter motor issue undoubtedly robbed him of a podium finish and perhaps even victory. One year on and Harold’s objective is clear: to win the Bathurst 12 Hour.

In only a short space of time HTP Motorsports has become one of Europe’s leading GT teams.

Established in 2012 as the successor to Heico Motorsports (an ultra-successful sportscar outfit in its own right), the project overseen by respected driver manager Norbert Brückner was soon winning in both its domestic Germany and on the European stage.

HTP’s involvement with Heico can actually be traced back to 2011 when it became a sponsor of the squad’s GT3 racing activities. As first Heico and now HTP the partnership has proven a formidable force ever since, with a number of headline grabbing championship titles, race victories and results to its name.

These have also helped to reinforce the team’s particularly strong relationship with Mercedes-Benz and AMG.

Since making its race debut in 2010 the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 has become one of the leading lights in international GT racing, clocking up countless victories and championships against rival sportscar brands such as Ferrari, Aston Martin and Porsche.

Its striking looks – which mix retro 1950s styling cues taken from Mercedes’ iconic 300SL with modern-day design know-how – and visceral V8 soundtrack make it perhaps the most recognisable of all GT3 machinery competing today.

Sticker branding with Harold’s 2013 programme offers your business a shop window to millions of potential customers.

Motorsport has proven a highly successful marketing tool since the first sponsorship-influenced liveries appeared in the late 1960s. One of the first sports to embrace sponsorship, it has since become the first choice for many of the world’s most recognisable businesses.

GT cars like the Mercedes have substantial bodywork space where your logo(s) can take pride of place.

As well as the car itself, the team’s race transporters that travel all over the world, garage area, driver overalls, mechanic uniforms, website and email templates can all feature prominent branding and (where available) hyperlinks.

Use your own, branded Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 to generate a ‘wow’ factor during product launches and promotions.

This is an opportunity to exploit global TV exposure measured in the hundreds of millions, advertise to tens of thousands of trackside fans and align your company with the thrill, excitement and history universally associated with motor racing.
