Abstract: The Mercedes diagram has four trivalent vertices which are connected by six links such that they form the edges of a tetrahedron. This three loop Feynman diagram contributes to the D^{12} R^4 amplitude at genus one in type II string theory, where the vertices are the points of insertion of the graviton vertex operators, and the links are the scalar propagators on the toroidal worldsheet. We obtain a modular invariant Poisson equation satisfied by the Mercedes diagram, where the source terms involve one and two loop Feynman diagrams. We calculate its contribution to the D^{12} R^4 amplitude.
