Second in a new series, this is the story of Mercedes-Benz's involvement in motorsport, from 1894 when the Daimler V2 engine won the world's first motor race, through the early years of last century, GP racing in the 1930s, the little-documented rallying exploits in the 1960s, to the McLaren-Mercedes partnership in F1 today. Packed with historical detail, this large-format, lavishly illustrated book includes new interviews with drivers from the 1930s and 1950s.
