Gemballa is a common name that pops up in the world of motorsports and coachbuilding. I’m sure most of you have heard Gemballa and Porsche in the same sentence. Now though, Gemballa will be working with two McLaren MP4-12Cs.

A new racing team was gathered for Gemballa and for the 2012 motorsports season, two McLaren MP4-12C GT3s tuned by the company will be racing around.

“We deliberately went for the McLaren MP4-12C GT3 for our motor sport commitment, because we think the car has enormous potential to be among the season’s leaders,” said Gemballa’s investor, Steffen Korbach. “Together with a renowned deployment team that’s already won everything in sight and exceptional drivers, we obviously want to drive to win. Racing is in our blood.”

Sascha Bert, a race driver and instructor, will lead the new team, Gemballa Racing SE.
