In 2017, Mercedes-AMG launched a GT4 race variant of the GT R sports car. Straight away, teams saw its potential, signing up to take delivery of cars for season after season of winning. Here's #BritishGT's Harry George & Darren Burke from 2023, pedal to the metal at Brands Hatch

We're celebrating 100 of Mercedes-Benz. The first new model was the Type 8/38 PS (W02 series), engineered under the guidance of Ferdinand Porsche. A century later, the newest Silver Arrows creation, the Mercedes-AMG F1 W17, has just won the first 4 Grands Prix of the new season.

We're celebrating 100 years since the factories of Daimler and Benz united to become one of the most formidable and enduring car brands of all time. Here's the Merecedes-Benz A-Class of #AidenMoffat, three times a winner in the #BritishTouringCarChampionship between 2015-19.

'Untypical' Of the 22 drivers currently in #Formula2, 21 took their early steps into competitive motorsport via karting: Not #JohnBennett. His first foray onto the grid came via Ginetta's GT5 Challenge, pitched against ambitious young GT career-hunting drivers. Look at him now!

We first saw #ColtonHerta race in Formula 4, as a feisty match for Lando Norris. Since then, he's emerged as a winner in IndyCar, finishing 2nd overall in '24. But now he's crossed to Formula 2, supported by Cadillac, as he develops the skills needed to propel him into Formula 1.

Whilst the #1 belongs to his team #InvictaRacing, #RafaelCâmara is no stranger to winning, being champion in both FREC & F3 as he's races through the ranks Here he is in #Formula2, racing to P2 at Albert Park, reminding all at Ferrari's Academy that his progress mustn't end here

This week, we're moving our focus to #Formula2's brightest stars; the racing talent seeking elevation to promising F1 careers. First up is #AlexDunne: Twice a winner in 2025, and starting 2026 with a podium at Albert Park, and a switch from McLaren to Alpine's Academy programme.

Like Oscar Piastri, #JamesWharton spent his early years in Melbourne's suburbs. Sadly, like his Formula 1 counterpart, his weekend at Albert Park also ended early, after a heavy crash with #F3 rival, Louis Sharp. Here they are, racing hard & fast, just before they made contact.

The last time a Ferrari driver won the F1 World Championship, #TuukkaTaponen was about to celebrate his first birthday. Now, the young Finn is a member of Ferrari's Academy programme, and has his sights set firmly on emulating the successes of fellow countryman, Kimi Räikkönen.

'Vorsprung' The four rings on the rear wing tell a very simple story: #FreddieSlater isn't just an exceptional racing talent; he's very firmly headed to what is likely to become one of the most sought-after seats in Formula 1. 📷 @stevehindle #tridentmotorsport #f3 #AudiF1

#BrunoDelPino rose to prominence when he claimed the bronze medal for Spain in Formula 4 at 2022's Motorsport Games, finishing third to winner Kimi Antonelli. Here he is cementing those credentials by leading teammate Enzo Deligny to his maiden #F3 win at Albert Park in March.

The cancellation of the Bahrain Grand Prix hasn't just affected Formula 1; critically, it's left both F2 and #F3 consigned to the sidelines, with just one weekend of racing (Australia) from each (so far). Bring on Miami, and more of this from #UgoUgochukwu. 📷 @SteveHindle

'Solus' It's an old Irish word, meaning 'the bringing of light', and that's exactly what two-time Formula 1 world champion #MikaHäkkinen did in Adelaide yesterday, parading the ultra-rare #McLarenSolusGT around the parkland circuit. 📷 @SteveHindle #adelaidemotorsportfestival
