Lucas Auer (AUT) and Tom Kalender (GER) will be racing for Mercedes-AMG Team Landgraf. Maro Engel (GER) will compete under the Mercedes-AMG Team RAVENOL banner, and Jules Gounon (FRA) under the Mercedes-AMG Team MANN-FILTER banner. In addition to the series’ mandatory sponsors and the Mercedes-AMG Motorsport partner line – consisting of the logos of official partners adidas, OMP and RAVENOL – all four Mercedes-AMG GT3 will take to the grid with individual and diverse design concepts.

Mercedes-AMG Team Landgraf #22 in adidas livery 
Austrian driver Lucas Auer, who is entering his eleventh DTM season in 2026, will compete in a Mercedes-AMG GT3 with start number 22. His car features a livery developed specifically for the DTM, which Mercedes-AMG Motorsport designed in collaboration with its official partner adidas. The Mercedes-AMG GT3 is presented in adidas Originals Blue, featuring the brand’s signature three white stripes. The livery is inspired by the iconic shoebox of the sports and lifestyle brand from Herzogenaurach. “The adidas design is truly unique and immediately catches the eye. It’s great fun to drive a car like this,” says Lucas Auer.

Mercedes-AMG Team Landgraf #84 in febi livery 
Tom Kalender – still the youngest driver on the DTM grid – will compete in his Mercedes-AMG GT3, carrying start number 84, in a red and white livery created by spare parts specialist febi. The brand belongs to Ferdinand Bilstein GmbH + Co. KG and is part of the globally active bilstein group. febi is regarded as one of the pioneers in the international spare parts market. In the 2026 season, febi will make its debut in the DTM. For Tom Kalender, this marks his second DTM season in the Mercedes-AMG Junior Driver’s still-young motorsport career. “I think the design turned out really well – the colours go perfectly together and immediately stand out,” Tom comments on his design.

Mercedes-AMG Team MANN-FILTER #48 in the “Mamba” design 
Jules Gounon will compete in the DTM for the second consecutive year with the iconic “Mamba”. The Mercedes-AMG GT3 carries the number 48. MANN-FILTER has been involved in motorsport since 2012. The striking yellow-green design, featuring snakeskin motifs and sharp fangs, was first introduced in 2015 and has since become one of the most iconic liveries in international motorsport. “I love the details of the Mamba. It’s one of the most iconic liveries in Mercedes-AMG Motorsport – I hope we can make it even more iconic by the end of the year,” said Jules Gounon.

Mercedes-AMG Team RAVENOL #80 in anniversary design
The design of the Mercedes-AMG GT3 #80 was further developed over the winter. Rainer Engel, the father of Maro Engel, who previously worked as a fashion designer, was also involved in the creative process. The basic colours remain the same, but the power and agility of the car are emphasised by the symbol of a cheetah – the fastest land animal in the world. The number 80, which is also new for Maro Engel in the DTM, pays tribute to the 80th anniversary of the lubricant manufacturer RAVENOL. The company, based in Werther, was founded in 1946. “I’m really pleased to race with a design that my father was involved in designing. That makes it all the more special,” said Maro Engel.

"The DTM is a platform where performance, brands and partnerships come together perfectly. In 2026, our four Mercedes-AMG GT3 will compete with unique designs that grab attention and convey clear brand messages. Together with Mercedes-AMG Motorsport partners adidas and RAVENOL, as well as team partners febi and MANN-FILTER, we will showcase different facets of our brand world – from modern streetwear aesthetics and classic motorsport DNA to artistic motifs. In this way, each car becomes a standalone communication medium and, at the same time, part of a consistent overall strategy.” Christoph Sagemüller, Head of Mercedes-AMG Motorsport
