Three weeks before the start of the ADAC GT Masters season, HRT's driver planning has been finalised. The reigning team champions will line up in the newly organised sprint series with six promising young talents, who will be spread across three Mercedes-AMG GT3s.

Next weekend, the Haupt Racing Team will kick off the new season on the legendary Nürburgring-Nordschleife with two rounds of the Nürburgring Endurance Series. The team, which is based in the immediate vicinity of the legendary Eifel circuit, will enter two Mercedes-AMG GT3s in the opening race. One of the cars will compete in these two races with works support as a Mercedes-AMG Team.

Mercedes-AMG Team HRT's preparations for the 2024 DTM season are in full swing. The team is already providing the first foretaste with the look of its two Mercedes-AMG GT3s. With MANNOL and Merbag, two strong partners of the Haupt Racing Team are once again represented on the cars of Mercedes-AMG Performance drivers Arjun Maini (IND) and Luca Stolz (GER) this year.

The Haupt Racing Team continues its successful history in the Endurance Cup of the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe. Jusuf Owega (GER), Arjun Maini (IND) and Michele Beretta (ITA) are taking up the challenge in the Pro Cup of the highly competitive series this year. The #77 Mercedes-AMG GT3 will compete in the five events of the endurance series in the livery of team partner Merbag.

After clinching the team championship last year, Haupt Racing Team is continuing its engagement in the ADAC GT Masters. Reigning ADAC GT Masters champion Salman Owega and David Schumacher (both GER) form one of the powerful driver pairings. Youngsters Finn Wiebelhaus (GER) and Kwanda Mokoena (RSA) are also set for the highly competitive racing series.

Haupt Racing Team is further expanding its motorsport portfolio: In the 2024 season, the team from Drees will take part in the Ferrari Challenge Europe for the first time. Two customer sports cars are planned, which will compete under the name Gohm Motorsport Team by HRT.

The Haupt Racing Team is further expanding its cooperation with mobility partner Merbag. In the coming season, HRT will enter the Mercedes-AMG GT3 with exclusive Merbag designs in prestigious championships. The Swiss car dealer and the team from Drees are thus intensifying their successful collaboration.

The Haupt Racing Team will once again be represented in the DTM with two cars in 2024. Under the Mercedes-AMG Team HRT banner, the squad from Drees with Luca Stolz (GER) and Arjun Maini (IND) will once again fight for the championship in the premier class of German motorsport.

The Haupt Racing Team and BILSTEIN are continuing their partnership, which began in 2020, in 2024. The renowned suspension specialist will support the racing team from Drees as official technology partner in selected racing series with technical expertise and its high-performance racing products. A particular highlight of this partnership this season will once again be the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring.

RuggON, manufacturer of high-performance and robust tablets, will be an official partner of the Haupt Racing Team in the 2024 season. The international brand will equip the team from Drees with high-quality computer solutions with immediate effect.
