New York, NY — Motorsport Network today announced the U.S. debut of its Autosport Business
Exchange (ABX) series, with the next edition set for October 15th in New York City at Classic Car Club Manhattan. The event will be headlined by Toto Wolff, Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team CEO & Team Principal.
Building on this year’s editions in London and Monaco, ABX NYC will focus on the Rise of Racing in America. Live programming will examine the sport’s momentum in the U.S. through the lens of technology and innovation, insights into modern fandom, and the investment and private capital entering the sport. Attendance will be by invitation, enabling an exchange of ideas among top investors, brand executives, and industry leaders.
Wolff’s discussion will headline a focused evening of high-level conversation and networking. Additionalprogramming and speakers will be announced later this summer.
“Bringing Autosport Business Exchange to New York is a signal of where the business of racing is heading,” said Werner Brell, CEO of Motorsport Network. “As investment interest accelerates, we’re creating a unique opportunity for business leaders and brands to exchange ideas and innovate—driving the business of motorsport forward”.
Since launching in early 2025, Autosport Business Exchange is emerging as the platform for strategic dialogue across motorsport. The Monaco edition in May was hosted aboard Formula 1’s Paddock Club yacht and featured Liberty Media CEO Derek Chang, alongside senior executives from LVMH, IBM, and Atlassian. The inaugural London event welcomed McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown and F1 Academy Managing Director Susie Wolff, among other top executives and opinion leaders across the world of racing.
