Mercedes-AMG Motorsport: Shaping the future of performance racing

The Opportunity

Mercedes-AMG Motorsport represents the pinnacle of performance racing, seamlessly transferring cutting-edge technology from the racetrack to the road. Innovations initially developed for GT3 and GT4 vehicles have continuously shaped the DNA of AMG series cars, reinforcing its status as a leader in high-performance automotive engineering. To further strengthen Mercedes-AMG Motorsport’s position in the evolving motorsport landscape, Mercedes-Benz Management Consulting supported the development of a long-term strategic direction. This included shaping a long-term vision, refining the business model, and crafting a comprehensive marketing strategy to solidify its position in a dynamic industry.

The Approach

We began with an in-depth analysis of the competitive landscape and key global trends influencing the future of motorsport. Beyond traditional racing, we explored emerging areas such as E-Sports and Sim-Racing to understand their growing impact on the industry. Collaborative workshops with the Mercedes-AMG Motorsport team provided the foundation for developing a future-oriented vision while maintaining the strong brand heritage. We explored opportunities to further enhance the business model and developed a multi-year marketing strategy to support the brand’s long-term ambitions.

This project was a great opportunity to combine my professional expertise and personal passion for motorsport. Collaborating closely with our colleagues from Mercedes-AMG Motorsport was a rewarding experience bridging heritage and innovation, creating a lasting impact on the future of performance racing together.
