PHM Racing (currently racing as PHM AIX Racing for sponsorship reasons) is a German auto racing team.[1] It started racing in 2022 after taking over Mücke Motorsport's Formula 4 assets.[2] They later entered Formula Regional Middle East, FIA Formula 3 and FIA Formula 2, the latter two in collaboration with Charouz Racing System under the PHM Racing by Charouz banner.[3] In 2024, PHM took full control of the F2 and F3 team's operations, and announced a new sponsorship deal with the AIX Investment Group that would see the team renamed PHM AIX Racing.[4]

History edit

Born from the ashes of Mücke Motorsport's open-wheeler program, which disbanded its single-seater programme at the end of 2021, PHM Racing was founded by Paul Müller with a squad mostly consisting of former Mücke personnel and the aim of being a non-profit organization.[5][6] The team made its first step into racing in the Formula 4 UAE Championship in 2022, competing with Nikita Bedrin, Jonas Ried and Taylor Barnard. Following a campaign that yielded the team's first ever race win with Barnard and a further pair of victories brought by Bedrin, team owner Paul Müller announced that they would be stepping into the Italian and German F4 series.[7][8]
