Pre-war Mercedes-Benz at Nurburgring before 1963 German GPAre we sure it was 1963? I was there and have no recollection of any parade of prewar cars. That's not to say there wasn't an exhibition in the paddock which as non-German speakers out on the circuit we wouldn't have known about.

Could the Maserati be the 150S that Moss drove in the sports car race supporting the 1956 German GP? (Source of the information: My cars, my career)

Hermann Lang demonstrated a W154 at the 1962 Grand Prix.

Yes it was 1963. It wasn't paraded, just brought out in the paddock.

I'm thinking it might be a good idea to split this thread into two by making a new Nurburgring 1959 thread to cover the discussion around the Maserati photos. Can we agree on this, please?
