Andretti Global Announces Siemens and AWS as Primary Partners at Detroit Grand Prix for Kyle Kirkwood

INDIANAPOLIS (May 29, 2025) – Andretti Global, a racing team under the TWG Motorsports umbrella, announced today that longtime partner Siemens, a global technology powerhouse, and Amazon Web Services (AWS), the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud, will serve as co-primary partners for the No. 27 Siemens AWS Honda piloted by Kyle Kirkwood at the Detroit Grand Prix.

As digital transformation accelerates across industries, Siemens and AWS are redefining what is possible in motorsport. Through a powerful collaboration that unites Siemens’ industrial software leadership with AWS’s unmatched portfolio of services and expertise, Andretti Global is gaining a competitive edge both on and off track.

The Siemens and AWS partnership is designed to break down traditional IT barriers, enabling seamless data access from edge to cloud. This empowers organizations like Andretti Global to operate with agility, scalability and precision – hallmarks of success in the high-stakes world of racing.

At the heart of this transformation is the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio of software,  now fully integrated into Andretti Global’s racing operations. Siemens’ strategic collaboration with AWS allows for the delivery of flexible, scalable SaaS solutions that support businesses of all sizes, from startups to global enterprises. For Andretti Global, it means unlocking new levels of performance through advanced analytics, real-time simulation and predictive decision-making.

With Siemens Xcelerator running on AWS infrastructure, Andretti Global engineers can now process massive volumes of race data in real time, enabling split-second decisions based on predictive analytics, optimizing everything from aerodynamics to race strategy.

Wind tunnel simulations, telemetry analysis and vehicle performance modeling are now integrated into a single, agile digital ecosystem, resulting in a faster, more responsive team that is ready to adapt to any challenge on race day.

Siemens is the team’s longest-standing partner, serving as its official software technology partner since 1997.  Live coverage of the Detroit Grand Prix will air live on FOX on Sunday, June 1.

TONY HEMMELGARN, PRESIDENT AND CEO, SIEMENS DIGITAL INDUSTRIES SOFTWARE

“This partnership is more than a technology upgrade – it’s a strategic transformation. Siemens and AWS are providing Andretti Global with the solutions to lead the next era of racing innovation. From the garage to the grid, we provide digital solutions to make faster, smarter decisions that directly impact the future of motorsport technology.”

JILL GREGORY, PRESIDENT, ANDRETTI GLOBAL

“Siemens’ continued involvement with the team reflects the strength of our longstanding partnership and shared commitment to performance, and we’re happy to have them serve as the primary on the No. 27 this weekend. We’re also pleased to welcome AWS to our family of partners at the Detroit Grand Prix as the co-primary, along with Siemens, on Kyle’s car in the lead up to Realize LIVE Americas 2025 in Detroit following the race weekend. The collaboration between Andretti Global and these two partners plays a vital role in how we prepare, adapt and compete week in and week out.”

KYLE KIRKWOOD, DRIVER OF THE NO. 27 SIEMENS AWS HONDA, ANDRETTI GLOBAL

“I’m looking forward to not only having Siemens back on board for another race weekend, but also welcoming AWS to the team. We’ve had a good start to the season, and the team has been strong on the newly reconfigured downtown track layout in Detroit the last few years, so I’m looking forward to seeing what we can do with the No. 27 Siemens AWS Honda this weekend.”
