Wow, that was really impressive to watch. I hope to visit there in person some day. The drone pilot had some amazing skills flying through the inside of some vehicles.

A question to those who have been there. At time 2:12 the camera begins to fly under a cable-boom that stretches between a fintail and a large station wagon. Can someone explain how that was used?

That is how they used to convey data during testing.

A lot of museums and galleries have opened their exhibits to online visits during this time of pandemic. It occurred to me that maybe Mercedes Benz had opened this museum. I don't know when they did it, but there is a virtual tour. You can't get close enough to ogle the 230SL on level 4, but you can see it and many other examples of Mercedes. https://data.system360gmbh.de/vrs_tour/mbm_museum/index_en.html
