Shortly after that, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:James Allison confirmed that Me𓆉rcedes will introduce a small upgrade for the race at Silverstone, although the team has played down 𒉰the sig๊nificance of it.
With Lewis Hamilton now trailing Max Verstappen by 32 points in the drivers’ championship, 🅰Mercedes is hopeful that this upgrade canღ turn its season around.
Speaking in , Shovlin said: “We are looking forward to Silverstone, we’ve got a good update coming there that’s quite exciting. We are looking forward tꦇo the home crowd, there is obviously a lot of Lewis fans that are going to be there, and it is also a trac🐽k where our car has worked well.
“So, we’ve got a few days just to regroup, to analyse the results of those and turn around the cars and get them ready f🦋or the next race in that updated bodywork, but we are optimistic f꧋or a better weekend.”
Mercedes ಞhas won all but two races at Silverstone since 2013.

“Well, it’s fair to say that Austria is a track that over the years, we have struggled at,” Shovlin added. "It’s a difficult circuit and one that doesn’t seem to suit our car and we are trying to understand those iss♏ues.
“Silverstone on the contrary though, is one that we have tended to go v𓄧ery well at and also Lewis really enjoys that circuit. Some of it is the layout and the high-speed nature but also the fantastic support he has there from the home crowd. So, we are looking forward to i🉐t, it’s still going to be a challenging race weekend.
“We’ve got the sprint format to contend with, but ho൲pe꧃fully we can put on a better showing and take that fight to Red Bull.”
