In 2009, Mercedes-Benz made a puny version of the SLR McLaren called ‘SLR Stirling Moss’ to pay tribute to Sir Stirling Moss. Simplest 75 SLR Stirling Moss had been built.

After which it might possibly possibly totally trail but again, the 1955 24 Hours of Le Mans. A 300SLR hit the encourage of a swerving vehicle and launched into the team, killing 84 including the motive force, and Mercedes did now not trail again for over 30 years.

Edit: It in actuality trail a pair more times after this in the 1955 season but after that they withdrew.
