You have a Mercedes 220 Fintail. You also have a race at the Nurburgring, F1 ace David Coulthard, and Chris Harris. What that adds up to is a simply epic recipe.

Mercedes kindly invited Chris Harris to go to the Nurburgring to race this beautiful 200 Fintail along with David Coulthard. You'd think, as a racing driver, that Coulthard has been around the Nurburgring a number of time, but that's not totally true.

His total number of laps is somewhere in the baker's dozen range. That's not a lot. Also, this Mercedes is around 20 seconds off the pace of the next slowest car. This is a long one, but a damn good one.

Enjoy.
