Bathurst 12 Hour – How Mercedes sees and uses this great race
We have just seen the running of the Bathurst 12 hour car race. It is for GT and production cars.
The great thing is that there are a lot of different makes and models in the field.
This year the top ten places were filled by eight different makes of vehicles including McLaren, Bentley, Audi, Nissan and Ferrari.
One of those makes was Mercedes with their SLS AMG.

David Brown
David Brown started his working life as a Civil Engineer but you would not want him to design a bridge you wanted to safely walk over. His passion was in traffic engineering and transport planning which is all about how we use our transport systems not how we build them. He soon became involved in commenting on issues through all avenues of the media. He is now a motoring and transport journalist. He test drives a new car each week but his ultimate measure of how good a car is relies on his 12 year old and the Hayden Brown “Will you drive me to school in that car” factor.
