Mercedes 2026 livery with TeamViewer on the engine cover
Mercedes, 2026. The engine cover and cockpit surround are the surfaces an onboard shot holds.

TeamViewer sells remote connectivity software to companies. It has been on the Mercedes engine cover since 2021 and it is attributed to the right team by more of the audience than the biggest technology deal on the grid.

TeamViewer became a Mercedes AMG Petronas premium partner in 2021, renewed the agreement in 2024 and carries branding on the engine cover and the cockpit surround. The software lets the team reach the car, the garage systems and the factory from any point on the calendar.

The surface is smaller than a sidepod and it is the one an onboard camera holds for the length of a lap.

Why does a smaller deal read better?

85 percent of the motorsport audience attribute the TeamViewer logo to the right team, above the grid average of 81.8 percent and 19.4 points above Oracle, a title partnership in the same category.

Recognition runs the other way at 89.4 percent, the third lowest of the eleven brands tested. A brand that arrives with less outside fame converts more of what the sport gives it, because every point of recognition it holds inside motorsport belongs to one association.

The second condition is exclusivity. TeamViewer has been on one team since it entered the sport and has no earlier team in the audience memory to compete with.
