W154, German GP, start number 16, Seaman, 1938

Product Description

Daimler‑Benz built a new racing car for the 1938 season based on the specifications of the new 3-litre racing formula. The determining factor under the new regulations was no longer the maximum weight of the car but its displacement. For naturally aspirated engines the maximum was 4.5 litres and for supercharged engines 3 litres. Daimler‑Benz stuck with compressor engines and for the chassis and suspension adopted the concept of the previous year’s W125. Two single-stage superchargers delivered an increase in output. During the 1938 season a continuous output of 453 hp was achieved.
