Our Team
The roots of WINWARD Racing go back to the 1980s. The history of the German-Texan racing team began with the merger of the racing teams IPS Racing and Mass-Schons Racing. Persson Motorsport was already in action as a Mercedes semi-works team in the “old DTM” and later in the FIA GT1 World Championship.
After 2011, a German Motorsport Consultant took over the team, which in 2013 joined forces with HTP Motorsport team via the “intermediate stage” HEICO Motorsport. Operating from the new team headquarters in Altendiez near Limburg, the racing team has since reaped numerous highlights in close collaboration with Mercedes-AMG. In its debut year in 2013, HTP Motorsport celebrated impressive successes.
A partnership with the American racing team WINWARD Racing around the father-son duo Bryce and Russell Ward from Houston resulted in a merger at the end of 2019. The German-Texan dream team has been operating ever since with ex-racing driver Christian Hohenadel leading the fortunes of WWR in Europe.

GT World Challenge Europe 2024
Reserved for cars conforming to GT3 regulations and using SRO Motorsports Group’s globally recognized Balance of Performance (BOP) criteria, Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe Powered by AWS can trace its roots back to the creation of the Blancpain Endurance Series in 2011.
The long-distance championship placed equal emphasis on professional and amateur competitors while promoting high standards both on and off the circuit. It quickly attracted strong grids and was followed in 2014 by the addition of a Sprint Series for short-format races, as well as an overall title to recognize the most consistent performers across both disciplines.
Since 2016 the series names were adjusted to the Endurance Cup and Sprint Cup. With the highest number of entries for GT3 vehicles in the world, the GT World Challenge is a series that MANN-FILTER did not want to miss in 2024!
Together with our Partner WINWARD Racing we compete in the GT World Challenge 2024, as Mercedes-AMG Team MANN-FILTER. This will be the first time a MANN-FILTER Mamba is on tracks for this series. The three worldcall drivers Lucas Auer, Maro Engel and Daniel Morad will steer the Mamba.
