Their Formula One car is not good enough and now questions grow louder about their star driver. 9WWOS
Wolff's comments came a day after seven-time F1 champion Lewis Hamilton said Mercedes was so far off the pace that he would need three teams to fall out of a race just for him to have a chance to win.
“We need to do a better job,” Wolff said. “We have to set ourselves strong targets internally, because we know where the deficit is. But I wouldn't want to talk publicly about it because it will just put pressure .” The 2023 W14 car has very narrow bodywork, known in F1 as a “zero-sidepod” concept, but Mercedes essentially produced a flawed car.
Hamilton said he’s still determined to negotiate a new contract and remains firm in his belief he can win again.
