“If this does really work and, at Imola, they get going b🦄etter than will look like an entirely difꩲferent season moving forwards,” she said on Sky.

“The test will be if they don’t see w🃏hat they want to see.

“They have a high expectation that it doesn’t live uꦕp to it, but they don’t make enough progress, then the test will be going into a triple-header. 

“You’🐷ve got to ꦇkeep cool, stay positive, know there is more racing to be done.

“If the upgrade really🔴 does work, it will be a big deal for them.”

Former F1 driver Jenson Button added that there will be some expectation surrounding Mercedes now: “They have, bec♛ause they’ve told us that they’ve got a big upgrade coming at Imola.

“It’s a big weekend fꦯor thꦦem. We are all excited by it, we need people jumping up the grid to fight the front guys.

“Hopefully it will p🏅ut them in a place where they can fight Aston Martin. They won’t fight the Red Bull yet.

“For Fernando Alonso he wants the competition, he loves the cღompeti⛎tion with Lewis.”
