Manor Grand Prix Racing Limited, trading as Manor Racing MRT or Pertamina Manor Racing MRT, was a British Formula One racing team and constructor based in Banbury, Oxfordshire in the United Kingdom. The team competed from 2010 to 2016.
The team started racing in 2010 under the "Virgin Racing" name; the following year Virgin adopted Marussia as a title sponsor, the team becoming "Marussia Virgin Racing" until being rebranded as the "Marussia F1 Team" for 2012. The team collapsed in November 2014.
The team exited administration in February 2015, and was re-established as the "Manor Marussia F1 Team" after new investment was secured; it was later announced that the businessman Stephen Fitzpatrick had purchased the team.[1] The team retained "Marussia" as its constructor name throughout the 2015 season, also adopting a British licence. In January 2016, the team announced it would be renamed to "Manor Racing".[2] The team competed under the constructor name MRT which stood for Manor Racing Team.
The team closed in March 2017, before the start of the season, after attempts to sell the team to a new owner did not come to fruition.[3][4]
