"We should also not forget that we did not get any parts from Mercedes. And we didn’t shorten the construction process and gain an advantage by buying parts. So we always established our own brake channels."

And they told us everything was fine. We put everything on the table and we didn't hide anything, we showed them where our designs come from, this can be easily understood today thanks to CAD technology,”He explains Saffron.
