Lewis Hamilton set to get wish with Mercedes not “clinging on” to current F1 car concept
After qualifying over a second behind 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen at the Japanese Grand Prix, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton claimed that the weakness in Mercede🌊s’ W14 🐻car concept was exposed at Suzuka.
The seven-time world champion, who pipped teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell to a low-key seventh, insisted that Mercedes need to 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:ditch the current philosophy they ♊have largely stuck by since the int𒐪roduction of new aerodynamic regulations last year.
After their unprecedღented run of eight consecutive constructors’ titles, Mercedes have endured a difficult two seasons and managed just a single victory in the 37 races since the start of 2022.
"Lewis and George together are always giving us feedback on where the weakness is,” Mercedes trackside ♊engineering director Andrew Shovlin said.
“And whiꦿlst they might be identifying different causes of it, we know that, fundamentally, the car doesn't have eno🍨ugh stability.
"We know that they don't have the confidence to just throw it into a high-speed corner, and not hওave some concern that t🐠he rear is going to slide more than they want and be a bit of a challenge.
"Whilst you might see different comments in the press, the two of them are very aligned on where the weaknesses are, and w🎃here we need to improve it. We can see the GPS from other cars and that all ties in. So, you can build a picture of where you need to develop.
"💟And we're certainly not clinging on to any concepts that we have had before. We're very open-minded. We've had a pretty chastening couple of years, and we are a team that's working very hard to try and get back to the front.”
And Shovlin confirmed Mercedes 🌃are planning considerable changes for their 2024 challenger.
"We are changing the car quite considerably for next year, but whether or not we can solve all the issues that we've got on the handling, that will depend on a number of projec𝄹ts delivering," he explain🐲ed.
"Those ꦏprojects are underway and they're not complete. We've got some good directions꧋ to try and improve that.
"The car will b𝓡e different. We've made a lot ꦇof changes to it, but it's very early in the development of a new car to be able to say, we've got it sorted."
