Legendary F1 commentator Martin Brundle believes the Mercedes c🐼ar is “the most difficult to drive” following his own on track observations.

Mercedes have endured a miserable start to the 2025 F1 season, with a best𓂃 finish of P5 at the season-opening Bahrain Grand Pr꧂ix.

The recent Australian Grand Prix was another blow as both 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell failed to finish the race.

Hamilton was forced out early due to an eng🌳ine-related issue, while Russell crashed out on the penultimate lap.

Not only is the Mercedes uncompetitive relative to the Red Bull and Ferrari, it looks a🍎 nightmare to drive on track, especially in high-speed corners.

Speaking about the Mercede🌊s in Australia, Brundle described the car as “all over the place.”

“When I was out on track on Friday it appeared to me that Lewis Hamilton’s Merc was perhaps the most difficult to🍸 drive,” he wrote in his .

“Through the high-speed chicane which makes up Turns One and Two, the car was all꧑ over the plac🅘e.

“For the third consecutive season, they haven’t hit the sweet spot with this era of ground-effect cars, and then can’t seem to contain the unpredictability of performance therea꧋fter.

“Team boss Toto Wolff always has elegant words and phrases to move the story on and refocus for the next race or season, but it must be weaꦑring very thin for him to see the lack of progress.

“And as oft💝en happens in such circumstances, reliability also went out of the window with a bang for Hamilton’s power unit.”

It seems Mercedes ha꧋v🐷e struggled with inconsistency so far in 2024.

As revealed by Hamilton, Mercedes were in fact struggling in sl♊ow-sp💛eed corners, rather than high-speed like in Jeddah.

“We didn’t look terrible in the high-speed [corners] but we’re slow in the low-speed this weekend, whereas in the last race, we were bad in the high-speed, good in the lower stuff. A real struggle this🅰 weekend,” 𒉰Hamilton explained.
