After the success of 2022, when our selection won the FIA New Star Trophy in Marseille as the best-placed team in the junior and recreational sport categories, we want to be up there attacking at the front again this year and represent Germany convincingly in all disciplines.”

Ellen Lohr, Director Motorsport AVL: “In addition to technological innovations, our priority is always the humans. Which is why we are delighted to be supporting one of the best teams at this year’s FIA Motorsport Games. We are represented in all the top motorsport categories, but our work at the racetrack and in manufacturers’ development teams is usually under the radar, so we are happy to be able to be visible with our logo alongside the DMSB at the games.”
