Lenovo will become the title sponsor for the 2020 Gran Premio di San Marino e della Riviera i Rimini. This will be the first time that Lenovo becomes the lead partner at a major motorsports event. The Gran Premio Lenovo di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini will take place from the 11th to 13th of September at Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli.

The brand has been MotoGP Technical Partner since signing a multi-year sponsorship deal with Dorna in 2019. The global technology company provides solutions from supporting day-to-day office operations to analysing computations from high-tech sensors. This includes gyroscopic 4K cameras on each prototype MotoGP machine. Furthermore, the brand is a highly visible part of each race weekend. It appears on-screen graphics to prominent banners in the pitlane at each circuit.
