What started with a phone call and a handshake is now the legacy of 30 years of the Mercedes-AMG FIA F1 Safety Car: born from pragmatism, trust, and a C 36 that happened to be Bernd Mayländer's private car.

In Episode 1 of Guardian of the Grid, our three-part documentary series, we're going back to 1996 where it all began. Norbert Haug and Michael Bock break down how the idea came to life, what was at stake, and why a road car was chosen to lead the field in Formula 1.

Get ready to see every Mercedes-AMG that served as an FIA F1 Safety Car, discover unseen archive footage, and hear firsthand stories from the people who were there.

Hit play, this one's worth it.
