Mercedes is expected to provide financial support to fewer cars in the DTM next year as part of a wider overhaul:
Mercedes has been the biggest spender of all manufacturers since the DTM switched to a customer-based formula in 2021. Six of the seven AMG GT3 entries on this year’s grid were financially supported by Mercedes, with David Schumacher’s car being the only exception.
"Teams are generally keen to continue with the exception of GruppeM," Mercedes’ customer racing boss Thomas Jager told Motorsport-Total.com. "It's not final yet, but I assume that [Winward and HRT] teams will continue with [at least] two vehicles.”Schumacher’s plans for the 2023 season could also have an impact on just how big a presence Mercedes will have in DTM next year.
“It also depends on David Schumacher's whereabouts If he were to continue in this constellation,” explained Jager. “Winward could have a third car. Or possibly a fourth."
