Our Mission
Closer to perfection
"Closer to Perfection" is more than just a corporate mission. It is our central brand promise. It sums up our daily motivation and unites us in our pride in what we have achieved.

Our Drive
Our Values
What defines us

Meticulousness is the key to success. We start every day with the aim of delivering the best possible result.
Our Roots
Where we come from
The Eifel is our home and the Nürburgring is our home turf. Nothing has formed us as much as the challenge of the "Green Hell".
Located directly at the Nürburgring, Meuspath is our company headquarters. In 2000, we found the space here to develop into a global company.
Porsche is not only our passion, but has also been our majority shareholder since 2013. This makes us and our solutions "Porsche approved".
Manthey is managed by Martin and Nicolas Raeder. The brothers took over from company founder Olaf Manthey in 2013.

Nicolas Raeder
Martin Raeder co-founded Raeder Motorsport in 2001 and has been Managing Director and co-owner of Manthey since 2013. Together with his brother Nicolas, he runs the company with the same passion as founder Olaf Manthey. His motivation is to perfect every detail without losing sight of the big picture.
As a qualified engineer, Nicolas Raeder founded Raeder Motorsport GmbH together with his brother Martin in 2001. In 2013, the company merged with Manthey Racing GmbH. Since then, the former racing driver has managed the company together with his brother, always on the lookout for technical competitive advantages.
