Press information | 28 January, 2025 | Drees

As in the two previous years, the Haupt Racing Team will continue to rely on the professional adhesive tapes and innovative fastening solutions from SCHARNAU in this and the coming season. The cooperation also includes vehicle wraps for design and protection as well as the joint development of new adhesive solutions that prove themselves in tough motorsport conditions. The partnership will be highlighted by a Ford Mustang GT3 with a full SCHARNAU / 3M design, racing in the ADAC GT Masters 2025. In addition, the SCHARNAU logo will be visible on HRT's racing cars in all other races.

  • Official technical equipment partner of HRT for reliable adhesive solutions

For more than 60 years, SCHARNAU has stood for professional adhesive technology. The German company, based in Werneuchen near Berlin, offers a wide range of useful products – from high-performance adhesive tapes to individual repair and fastening solutions for racing cars and pit equipment – especially for the extreme demands of motorsport, which are a daily routine for a professional team like HRT.

2025, HRT and SCHARNAU are deepening their successful collaboration that began two years ago. The cooperation now also involves the design and protection of the vehicles, for example with the innovative paint and stone chip protection films from ORAFOL in Oranienburg. Another focus is the joint development of new adhesive solutions for motorsport.

In 2024, HRT already entered a race car with SCHARNAU / 3M livery in the ADAC GT Masters and was thus able to contribute to defending the team championship title. In the new season of the series, which starts on May 23 at the Lausitzring, for the first time one of HRT's new Ford Mustang GT3s will carry the full SCHARNAU / 3M livery. As an official team partner, the SCHARNAU logo will also be seen on all other racing cars of the team from Drees - including in the DTM, the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe powered by AWS and the ADAC RAVENOL 24h Nürburgring.

Ulrich Fritz, Chief Executive Officer Haupt Racing Team: "We are very happy that SCHARNAU will continue to be our official equipment partner this season and next. The high-quality adhesive and fastening solutions are a valuable support for the daily work of our team. We will do everything in our power to be as successful in the ADAC GT Masters with our first Ford Mustang GT3 in the SCHARNAU / 3M livery as we were last year when we won the title."

Matthias Schach, Managing Director of Bindfadenhaus en gros Gustav Scharnau GmbH: "After two years of successful cooperation, I am looking forward to a successful third season as HRT's equipment and development partner, which makes us very proud. Motorsport is extremely demanding, and our adhesive tapes meet those needs perfectly. In addition to product quality, our high reliability and international logistics contribute to the success of the partnership. We are looking forward to two more exciting years with HRT and the Ford Mustang GT3 in the SCHARNAU design in the ADAC GT Masters."
