Toto Wolff: We hope to take a step forward

Before the start of the weekend in Barcelona, ​​the head of the Mercedes team, Toto Wolff, summed up the results of the last stage and spoke of the hope for progress …

Toto Wolff: “With the third fastest car in Miami, we have earned the maximum number of points. Given George’s starting position, he played well. Lewis was fast all weekend, without the safety car he would have finished fifth. I have no doubt that in the course of the season the luck will surely return him.

During Friday practice, the car showed some of its true potential. We experimented with the settings and added a few new components, which helped us understand where we needed to go.

Our bases are working hard to process the information collected in Miami and use it to finalize the car in Barcelona. We did a winter test there with a car that has evolved a lot since then, but we can compare the data with today’s chassis and hope to take it one step further.

Barcelona has a universal test track that allows you to evaluate the performance of all aspects of the car. But it has always been difficult to overtake him – it is interesting to understand how the new generation of cars will handle this.

In basketball terms, we go to Barcelona at the end of the first quarter. We know that after we translate the knowledge gained into results on track, there are many more games to play.”
