“It’s a great pleasure for us to bring the Silver Arrows back to the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the second consecutive year,” said Iron Lynx team principal and CEO, Andrea Piccini. “I particularly like that we are doing it by featuring three distinct personalities. We are also delighted to partner with Team Qatar. The first time at Le Mans is always unique, and I really hope it will be an unforgettable experience.” 

Stefan Wendl, Head of Customer Racing for Mercedes-AMG Motorsport, said: “I’m very pleased to see three Mercedes-AMG LMGT3 cars once again on the grid for this year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans.

“Continuing the story of the Silver Arrows in 2026 through the liveries of all three cars, following our debut last year, underlines the special significance this race holds within our motorsport heritage. Building upon the experience gained last year, we are aiming to confirm our sporting progress with a strong result.”
