Mercedes-AMG releases full five-chapter documentary on the AMG GT R

Awaiting on YouTube

When Mercedes-AMG decided the SLS needs a worthy heir, the new model, especially its hardcore GT R derivative, had to abide by the laws of the Nürburgring.

Easier said than done. Handling everything the Green Hell throws at you is no walk in the park, even when your name is Mercedes-Benz or AMG and your affair with the Nordschleife goes back to the very roots of motorsport.

But through neverending hours spent on the German asphalt snake stretching over 21 km, Mercedes-AMG pulled off the project. And now they want to share the challenges and how it all played out with you, with a five-episode YouTube video series.

Watching all of them in a row will claim 30 minutes from your productive day, but considering it's Monday, we see no harm in that.
