Racinguistas Cerveceros

Racing Club de Montevideo is a professional football club from Montevideo in Uruguay. It currently participates in the Uruguayan Primera División since winning the Torneo Competencia in 2022.

Racing CM is known as "La Escuelita" (The Little School) due to the high standard of players that have emerged from their teams. Racing is one of Uruguay's traditional teams, in terms of victories and fans. Recently, Racing has faced economic problems and struggled to remain consistent and perform well at the Uruguayan League. This drove the club toward economic reorganization and a transformation into a sports corporation (SAD), as is customary in Europe. An associated investment program created the basis for sporting promotion to Uruguay's first division in 2022.

In the 22/23 season, the promoted team qualified for the qualifying round of the Copa Sudamericana at the first attempt. Following this change, Red&Gold Football, a joint venture between German Bundesliga club Bayern Munich and American Major League Soccer (MLS) club Los Angeles FC, became the new majority shareholder in the club, driving further investment into the club's infrastructure in order to further expand and improve the existing foundations.

Racing's main rival is Fénix, with whom they contest the Clásico del Oeste.
