After the presentation of the new car, the Mercedes team held its first run-in, as well as a filming day at Silverstone circuit, and we talked about drivers’ impressions.
Now Mercedes has shared a short video dedicated to this event. To better understand the drivers’ mood ahead of winter testing, here are some comments from George Russell and Lewis Hamilton.
“It’s great to get out on track, to feel the car come to life,” said George. – Being behind the wheel of this car is a real privilege and I’m proud of it. We’re very serious.”
“Every second spent on track is critical,” Lewis continued. – The most important time has come. The beginning of this work for us, the racers, can be compared to the Christmas holidays, because we have received our new toy!”
According to the general opinion, which was assisted by team leader Toto Wolff, the car looks very good on track.
