In 1923 Mercedes made its first appearance at the Indianapolis 500. Christian Lautenschlager, Christian Warner and Max Sailer drove a three-car factory team which was entered by Daimler Motoren Gesellshaft. The cars were equipped with superchargers, the first appearance for a supercharger at the Indy 500.
As the checkered flag fell, the cars were in respectable position, finishing in 8th, 11th, and 23rd.
