In Imola the first improvements will arrive on the part of all the Formula 1 teams. It will be a fundamental weekend to see if any of the aspiring teams can stand up to the Red Bull of Max Verstappen and Checo Perez. And Mercedes seems to have been removed from the equation.
Toto Wolff, In statements to ‘Crash.net’, he has not exactly been optimistic about these improvements. don’t believe in miracles and is convinced that neither lewis hamilton neither George Russell they will come to the head.
“It will not transform things. Never in the 15 years that I have been in F1 has a change been introduced so big that it will give you half a second, so I highly doubt that this will happen,” said the head of the silver arrows.
“We need to manage our own expectations, because we are going to bring a package of updates that will consist of a new front suspension, chassis, a new floor and other things. We are looking at downforce…” added Wolff.
Of course, trust in evolution to put people in trouble. Aston Martin and Ferrari: “The evolution we are going to bring is going to help us set ourselves in the right direction and understand the areas where we can play a key role in why the car is so difficult to drive.”
“I’m looking forward to taking some variables off the table, where we think we’ve been able to introduce something we don’t understand into the car. We can be a more stable platform and from there we should see where the base is and what we can do from there…“, has sentenced Wolff.
Mercedes is third in the F1 championship. And it’s just six points behind Aston Martin. So they are not that far. But it is already known that Mercedes has always been pessimistic about her options. But in Imola they could be there. Anything can happen with the upgrade package.
