In 2023, a successful cooperation enters its fourth year: Haupt Racing Team and technology partner BILSTEIN are attacking together again in this year's motorsport season.  

Merbag and Haupt Racing Team are extending the partnership launched last year and expanding it for the 2023 season. 

When the DTM starts its first season under the patronage of the ADAC at the end of May, HRT will also be back. The team of former DTM driver Hubert Haupt will field two Mercedes-AMG GT3s in the prestigious racing series. In terms of drivers, Mercedes-AMG Team HRT is banking on continuity: Like last year, Luca Stolz and Arjun Maini will be behind the wheel. Stolz, a recent Bathurst 12 Hour-winner, impressed last year with a DTM victory at the Nürburgring. Maini was the first Indian race driver on a DTM podium in 2021. In 2022 he confirmed his potential with further top finishes. The team has again set itself high targets for the 2023 DTM season.

Al Faisal Al Zubair (OMA), Martin Konrad (AUT) and Luca Stolz (GER) secured the GT victory in rounds 3 and 4 of the Middle East-based Asian Le Mans Series. With their race strategy working out perfectly on both Saturday and Sunday, the driver trio put their black #7 Mercedes-AMG GT3 on the top step of the podium in both races at Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, as well as finishing runners-up in the championship.

After a podium finish at the first race weekend of the Asian Le Mans Series, HRT heads into the final two races of the ACO series at the Yas Marina Circuit with confidence.

The first two rounds of the Asian Le Mans Series will be held at the Dubai Autodrome this weekend. The Haupt Racing Team will field two cars at the Persian Gulf.

Haupt Racing Team will once again compete in the Asian Le Mans Series in the 2023 season. The team from Meuspath will tackle all four rounds of the series, which will be held on two consecutive weekends, with two Mercedes-AMG GT3s and will rely on an experienced driver line-up.

The 2023 motorsport season begins with a real highlight for Haupt Racing Team: the Hankook 24H DUBAI, which will take place at the Dubai Autodrome from 13 to 15 January 2023. HRT will be competing in the Pro class with two Mercedes-AMG GT3s and has assembled a top-class driver line-up.

DTM runner-up Lucas Auer (AUT) will line up alongside his DTM team-mate Arjun Maini (IND) and GT World Challenge driver Jordan Love (AUS) for Haupt Racing Team at the PAGID Racing 46th DMV Münsterlandpokal race, which forms part of the Nürburgring Endurance Series (NLS).

Luca Stolz (GER) finished in the points again in the final race of the 2022 DTM season at the Hockenheimring. Ninth place in Sunday’s race was enough to secure sixth place in both the Driver and Team championships for himself and Mercedes-AMG Team HRT. Arjun Maini (IND) was unable to start on the final day, following a collision in the Saturday race.
