    During the record attempt in Nardo with the MB 190 E 2.3-16, the 18 test drivers took turns at the wheel every 2 1/2 hours. With refueling, this stop lasted about 20 seconds. After every 17,000 km, all tyres, engine oil and oil filter were changed, and the 16 valves were adjusted. This work was carried out on the hot engine in 5 minutes.
