AF Racing and HWA AG create a joint venture

This Thursday, AF Racing formalized a partnership with HWA AG, current partner of Mercedes en DTM and who will be involved with the Stuttgart firm in Formula E, for the creation of a joint enterprise. Based in Germany, the association wants “develop projects in motorsport, and in the automotive sector in general. »

“The founding of this company with HWA AG opens a wide spectrum for the strategic development of our company both for motorsport and for automobile production, comments Dr Florian Kamelger, co-owner of AF Racing. Our priority is to establish ourselves at a global level in motorsport. »

An announcement that could potentially offer a new outlet for Aston Martin, closely linked to AF Racing, one of the major partners of Red Bull and Aston Martin in the birth of the Valkyrie hypercar. R-Motorsport, team of parent company AF Racing, competes with Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3s in Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup

Indeed, knowing the departure of the star brand, and therefore of HWA, from the German touring championship at the end of the year to head towards Formula E, here is a potential gateway which opens for Aston Martin to enter DTM. If such a possibility materializes, it remains to be seen when this arrival would be effective.
