ma-con is a German racing outfit established in 2001 by Marian Hamprecht. The team initiated its participation in the Formula Renault 2000 Eurocup and Formula Renault 2000 Germany series in 2002, concentrating on regional and continental competitions throughout Germany and Europe. Presently, ma-con competes in the FIA Formula 3 European Championship.

Throughout its history, the team has competed under several designations, such as ma-con Motorsport, ma-con Racing, and ma-con Engineering. During the 2011 ADAC Formel Masters season, it also fielded a secondary entry branded as Krafft Walzen.

History

Founded by Marian Hamprecht, a German F3 team manager, ma-con has participated in various Formula 1 feeder categories, securing notable results in lower-level open-wheel racing. After campaigns in the 2002 and 2003 Formula Renault 2000 Eurocup series, the organization took over the Den Blå Avis team to compete in the 2004 International Formula 3000 Championship. Despite achieving third place in the teams' classification and guiding driver Tomáš Enge to fourth overall, ma-con exited F3000 to back Enge's 2005 IRL venture and entered the Italian F3000 championship with an exclusively Czech driver lineup. Following further accomplishments in this series, the team suspended its activities after the 2005 season.

In 2008, ma-con joined the ADAC Formel Masters to establish a junior development program aimed at progressing drivers to more advanced open-wheel categories. This effort supported talents such as André Rudersdorf and Sven Müller. Although they secured both a driver's title and a teams' championship, ma-con discontinued its ADAC Formel Masters involvement to concentrate on their 2012 FIA Formula 3 European Championship campaign. The team enlisted British racers Emil Bernstorff and Tom Blomqvist, finishing fourth in the teams' standings of the 2012 Formula 3 Euro Series. Simultaneously, Rudersdorf claimed victories in the Austrian Formula 3 Cup and won the Trophy Class within the German Formula Three Championship.

Despite these successes, ma-con halted operations following the conclusion of the 2013 season. The team made a brief return in 2015, competing with Christopher Höher at the Most round of the 2015 Remus F3 Cup, testing an Oreca F3 engine under race conditions. Höher achieved a podium finish during this appearance but transferred to another team for subsequent events.

In 2018, ma-con announced its comeback to the FIA Formula 3 European Championship with German driver Julian Hanses, marking their return after a four-year absence.
