The MB AMG Petronas team is for all intents and purposes a British team, running a German powertrain. There are hundreds of people working in the UK that enable the team to have excelled these last 5-6 years. That takes away nothing from the MB powertrain engineers as they have designed and produced the sport’s finest engine combo, and the support from the ‘mothership’ has been outstanding, in that MB has been pretty hands-off re: the day to day running of the team, unlike Ferrari where corporate ‘bigwigs’ can’t seem to stop interfering.
