Painting the Merdedes-Benz Silver Arrows
Ever since 1934, Mercedes-Benz racing cars have been painted silver. And the MGP-W02, this season's MERCEDES GP PETRONAS Formula One car, is no exception. The painting process begins at the Mercedes-Benz Design Centre in Sindelfingen, Germany, with the 'power wall' - a life size animated wall that allows colours to be displayed in fine detail at a range of different lights, to make the right choices.

This VNR includes exclusive interviews with the experts involved in the process and both MERCEDES GP PETRONAS drivers, as well as exclusive pictures of the process in action.
