Schubert Motorsport is a private motorsport team founded and owned by team principal and European Autocross champion Torsten Schubert, and headquartered in Oschersleben, Germany (near the Motorsport Arena). The team has operated as a BMW privateer since its inception in 1999 (except in 2018), with plenty of success,[1] and has specialised in endurance racing since 2004. Although it is closely related to contract BMW associate Schubert Motors GmbH, also owned by Torsten Schubert, they are separate entities.
For much of its earlier years, Schubert focused on touring car racing, taking numerous championships and race wins, including a remarkable 5th-place result and class win at the 2006 Nürburgring 24 Hours. Only beginning in 2007 did Schubert Motorsport initiate regular competition in GT for BMW.
In 2012, after five years of GT racing, the manufacturer established Schubert as a works-assisted customer team of BMW,[2] which allowed the team to receive benefits and advantages from the cooperation. Incidentally, the team ceased operating with touring cars at this time to focus their efforts on GT racing.
Separately, the team used slightly different names during its time. Beginning with the name of the sister company (Schubert Motors) and then the 'Schubert Motorsport' name, the team was well known for racing under the Need for Speed banner as Need for Speed by Schubert Motorsport (alternatively: Need for Speed Team Schubert) in 2010-2011. It carried the namesakes of its sponsors (like 'PIXUM', 'Saudi Falcons', and 'SX' in their respective series) and 'BMW Sports Trophy' for 2014-2015. Since 2016, the team has competed only as 'Schubert Motorsport'.
In 2018, Schubert Motorsport briefly operated as a Honda customer team, having made the switch from BMW and entering a pair of Honda NSX GT3s in the ADAC GT Masters (despite this, Schubert Motors GmbH continues the close relationship with BMW, but it is a separate entity). Nonetheless, Schubert returned to racing with BMW in the following year.
In 2022, for the first time in their history, Schubert Motorsport entered the DTM in light of the series adopting GT3-based specifications.
