Toto Wolff reveals new Mercedes F1 concept already in the wind tunnel
Mercedes started F1 2023 in disappointing fashion as Lewis Hamilton finished a distant fifth, over 50 seconds behind eventual race winner 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen.
While Mercedes have cured their porpoising issue, their current car simply lacks over🐻all downforce relative to Red Bull and Aston Martin.
Reported by AMuS, Mercedes are weighing up two new concepts, although they will have to make a decision quickly to save thei🎐r season.
“It’s been done in the wind tunnel, but it’s not just about the sidepods or how the car looks from the outside,” he told ORF.
“We have to dig into the data and decide ℱwhich direction to go𝓡 in.”
With there being only two more races from now until the end of April following the cancellation of the Chinese Grand Prix, teams will have a lot of time to develop and bring𝐆 new upgrades.
How quickly Mercedes c💃an introduce a new concept is unclear given that McLaren will d🌸o so in Baku on April 30.
The Woking team decided this in January - four months prior to next🌱 month’s Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
Thus, Mercedes wil🌜l have to work quickly if they’re ab🔴le to introduce it for Imola in the middle of May.
“We don't throw in the towel,” Wolff told AMuS. "The budget cap will not limit us.
“We just have to make the decision now in which direction we are goi🍨ng and then get the data to work.”
