It is currently active in GT racing, Formula E and Formula One.

The Mercedes Simplex of 1902, built by DMG, was Mercedes' first purpose-built race car—much lower than their usual designs—which were similar to horse carriages; that model dominated racing for years. In 1914, just before the beginning of the First World War, the DMG ''Mercedes 35 hp'' won the French Grand Prix, finishing 1–2–3. Karl Benz's company, Benz & Cie. built the "bird beaked", ''B ...
