BR Engineering

BR Engineering is a Russian racing car constructor founded in 2013 by Boris Rotenberg as part of the SMP Racing programme for the development of Russian motorsport. The company designs and builds prototypes to LMP regulations, and its cars have competed in prestigious international events including the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the FIA World Endurance Championship. Its first cars, the BR01 and BR1, were created in cooperation with established foreign racing manufacturers, which allowed Russian engineers to gain experience with advanced technology and later apply it independently. The BR01 was a 2015 LMP prototype, while the BR1, an LMP1 prototype, was designed in 2018 in collaboration with Dallara. The racing engagement of the prototypes is handled by SMP Racing. The company's biggest international success was a third place overall at the 2019 24 Hours of Le Mans, where the BR1 crew finished on the podium against factory Toyota teams. Currently, the main project is the BR03 sports prototype, developed and produced in Russia for competition on Russian racing circuits. Factory crews actively and successfully race the BR03 at national level, and BR Engineering offers a wide range of rental options for other drivers and teams for competition or training programmes.

BR Engineering was founded in 2013 by Boris Rotenberg as part of the SMP Racing programme aimed at developing Russian motorsport. The company's first cars, the BR01 and BR1, were created in cooperation with well-known foreign racing manufacturers, allowing Russian engineers to learn advanced technological practices that they later applied independently. The BR01 was a prototype built to LMP regulations in 2015. In 2018, the company designed the BR1, an LMP1 prototype, in collaboration with the Italian constructor Dallara. The racing engagement of these prototypes was managed by SMP Racing. The highlight of BR Engineering's international campaign came in 2019, when a crew racing the BR1 finished third overall at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, sharing the podium with factory Toyota teams. This remains the company's greatest success in international competition. Subsequently, BR Engineering's main project became the BR03 sports prototype, developed and produced in Russia for competition on Russian racing circuits. Factory crews have actively and successfully raced the BR03 at national level, and the company now offers rental options for other drivers and teams for racing or training programmes.
