Mercedes-AMG is doubling down on driver engagement for 2026, announcing an expanded AMG Experience season that blends hardcore track time with a breathtaking on-road adventure through the American West. The program will visit four legendary U.S. circuits, including a first-ever stop at Virginia International Raceway (VIR), while also reviving its ultra-exclusive “On Road” Western Range Tour through Wyoming and Montana.
The biggest news for track-day purists: Virginia International Raceway officially joins the AMG Experience calendar in 2026. The historic 3.27-mile Full Course features 17 corners, massive elevation changes, and high-speed sections that reward precision and confidence, making it an ideal proving ground for AMG’s most potent machines.
AMG has also refined its ADVANCED Track curriculum, condensing it into a single-day, track-intensive format. The new structure lowers the cost versus the previous two-day program and serves as the fastest pathway into PRO and PRO+ levels, ideal for drivers ready to level up their skills quickly.
