Falken’s latest film, "A Monument to the Art of Racing" has won the coveted International Motor Film Award in the category "Best Event Film" at this year’s prestigious ceremony. Falken thus joins the league of the best and most renowned films from Porsche, Bentley and NASCAR. The grand unveiling of the winners of the award took place last night at the famous Alexandra Palace in London.
The award-winning film was created in collaboration with Motionctrl and Tobias Kahler and was the latest Falken’s successful 24h race film series with him. Released in June, the movie follows the 2023 Nürburgring 24-hour race and delves deep into the emotions of the drivers and the entire motorsport team. For this, Falken collected over twenty hours of raw footage during the race week in May 2023.
"It's great to receive this award, especially against some truly competitive entries," says Dennis Wilstermann, assistant manager at Falken Tyre Europe GmbH. "The award recognises the best in the world of automotive cinematography. Congratulations to everyone but especially Tobias Kahler and his talented team."
FALKEN takes first place in the BRV Service Award: German Tyre Retail and Vulcanisation Trade Association (BRV) announced tyre brand FALKEN, part of Dunlop Tyre Europe GmbH, as the winner at the BRV General Meeting on 8 June 2026.
Falken is reinforcing its position as a sporty, multi-segment tyre brand at THE TIRE COLOGNE 2026. The exhibition presence addresses the passenger car, off-road and commercial vehicle sectors alike, with a strong focus on the design of technical performance characteristics for use under realistic operating conditions.
Despite a strong performance, Falken Motorsports did not have the necessary racing luck at this year’s ADAC RAVENOL 24h Nürburgring. After an impressive comeback, the Japanese tyre manufacturer’s team was forced to end the race prematurely in the first half following an unfortunate accident. Up until that point, Klaus Bachler, Morris Schuring, Sven Müller, and Tim Heinemann had been battling for top positions in front of more than 350,000 spectators along the Nordschleife, steadily working their way up the field with consistently fast lap times.
