This was Mercedes' only participation in a non-championship Formula 1 race, the team wanting to demonstrate their cars to their home nation, especially on a track that would suit them. As such it was a processional race, with less than a second separating the three cars, and fourth placed André Pilette coming in 3 laps behind in his Gordini T16.
