The Mercedes team leader does not lose optimism and is happy that both riders have earned points in Melbourne …
Toto Wolff: “The Melbourne stage brought us a lot – we collected data for analysis, came to certain conclusions, earned points with two cars. We still don’t have enough speed to fight Ferrari and Red Bull, but we know what to add. The mood and strength of our team inspire confidence in a successful future.
All our employees in Brackley and Brixworth, all members of the road racing team, have joined forces to address the weaknesses of the new car.
Today Lewis and George performed at an exceptionally high level and achieved a good result in a car clearly inferior to the leaders in speed – this is another example of the strength of the spirit of this team. They both deserved a podium, but Lewis was unlucky when the safety car came out.
We are realistic about the strength of the opponents and the time frame we need to get back to the top, but third and fourth place allow us to leave Australia with a good feeling.”
