And Mercedes? Well, the chassis numbers do go up to 15 but according to Sheldon's book numbers 1 and 11 were never raced. 2 to 8 inclusive were all raced in 1954 and in 1955 every chassis except 1, 7 and 11 was raced at least once! So, theoretically, M-B had anything up to twelve cars ready to race in 1955. Wow!!
Apparantly they took eight cars to their last race, the 1955 Italian GP.
