Among the most glamorous Grand Prix events of the 1930s were the contests in the north African city of Tripolis. For the Mercedes-Benz team, this was a good place to be, as they were able to set up impressive records here. For the 1939 GP, the cubic capacity was limited to 1.5 liters, a challenge for the Mercedes team because they didn’t have a racing engine of that small size.
Within less than eight months Daimler-Benz succeeded in building up this new 1.5-liter car. Racing fans all over the world were looking forward to the debut of the new “mini” Mercedes Silver Arrow W 165 at the race track of Mellaha on May 7th, 1939. A new success story was born when Hermann Lang with starting number 16 and Rudolf Caracciola with starting number 24 drove their racers to a sensational double victory. Hermann Lang was the winner, Rudolf Caracciola with #24 finished 2nd. The limited-edition CMC replica of this runner-up car concludes our commemoration of the winning duo on a high note, for it not only provides a powerful reminder of their double victory but is also impressive to look at.
