Mercedes-AMG has announced its participation in two major upcoming GT3 racing events. In August 2026, the manufacturer confirmed a multi-car entry for the Suzuka 1000km, a round of the Intercontinental GT Challenge. This entry includes two Craft-Bamboo Racing cars in the Pro and Pro-Am classes, as well as a third entry from 75 Express.

Following this, Mercedes-AMG announced its return to the FIA GT World Cup in Macau. The manufacturer plans to field three cars across two teams, including two entries from Craft-Bamboo Racing and one from Tigani Motorsport. The company is reportedly prioritizing preparation and simulation to address new technical requirements, such as the mandatory use of torque sensors at the Guia Circuit.
