The new Mercedes F1 car - back in its Silver Arrows livery after two years in black - was revealed prior to being shaken down at a stormy Silverstone on Friday, with George Russell the first to get behind the wheel during its filming day. Lewis Hamilton then took over on his first appearance since losing the 2021 drivers’ championship in last year’s controversial Abu Dhabi finale.
Hamilton put to bed fears he might walk away from F1, with the action announced by the FIA on Thursday evidently satisfying both driver and team.. So after two months of uncertainty, he will fight for an eighth world championship.
But the key question is will be Mercedes W13 be up to it, with team boss Toto Wolff saying that the team is treating its latest creation with its traditional scepticism. After all, despite its success, Mercedes takes nothing for granted.

New regulations means clean sheet for everyone. Further down the line designs that are more successful will see more teams adopting them.

@TheZanzaroni 2 года назад

The new rules will always test a team's computational and creative capabilities. What is really interesting is that Mercedes' concept is very reminiscent of 2019-2021 style concepts, (front wing loaded outwards, tightly packed side pods and wavy floor sections). No other team has such close resemblance to their earlier machinery, so it will be really interesting to see if this concept was really a refinement from a blank slate, or something they knew works adapted to a new set of regulations.

The suspiciously familiar to W12 design simply tells us that Mercedes pulled off a bluff, especially given the fact that the render is different from the car that was presented today in real life.

And 2009-rules cars were catastrophically ugly due to disproportionate wing dimensions set by the rules. 2022 grid on the whole is the best looking grid since about 1993 (before everyone followed Benneton with the raised nose).

Fast-forwarding back to now, I'm not necessarily interested to see merc "fail", rather then I'd like to see other teams get it really right.

Ed talked about restrictions on the number of CFD and wind tunnel runs are made by the leading teams. However, since all 10 teams have the same annual budget cap then Mercedes will have more money to put into other areas. It may balance out for them anyway.

How is Gary going to approve this design but tear into the Ferrari design when the side pod has the same flat edge it’s just the backside that differs Ferrari is going for up wash towards the rear wing Mercedes is going for a downwash towards the Coke bottle diffuser and b wing area. They better hope that front wing concept is doing some serious work for them because everyone else on the grid seems to have taken a different philosophy of sacrificing front down force to power up the Venturi tunnels and the wing and the diffuser.

The cost cap will hit them hard, RB used to spend $250M per year compared to Mercedes' $500M. That's double. Based on their performance, I'd say Redbull gets more for their money; and are likely to benefit from this cost cap.

@@therrydicule Well, Redbull are better at using their money. Mercedes won't be midfielders, but they don't have the same talent anymore and are used to overspending.

@tuck1726 2 года назад

That’s not what he said. He just said it hurt high rake which is obviously true. It is unfair that Mercedes that they changed the rules with development mostly frozen. However, that did not hand max the win. If you go back and look Mercedes ran a smaller wing at almost every track meaning they needed less downforce from wing than redbull and had advantage on straights

@tuck1726 2 года назад

Mercedes won the constructors championship despite max winning the drivers championship. That should tell us something. Bottas still beat Perez more than Perez beat him. Furthermore bottas beat max more than Perez beat lewis. Mercedes had more 1-2 finishes and front row lockouts as well. All of that means one thing. Mercedes car was faster. There were plenty of low rake cars that didn’t have a chance at beating Mercedes. Clearly that’s not the definitive factor. McClaren even had a Mercedes engine, so you can’t argue the engine made up for the rake. All teams had to adapt to new regs. Aero is very sensitive to minor changes. After perelli came out with new tire and Mercedes figured out how to make high rake work with new regs they were faster.
