Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes team are rolling the dice in a bid to turn their frustrating season around and the stakes could not be higher
engender such a febrile sense of anticipation as there has been around Mercedes in the buildup to this weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix. Perhaps it was fated that it would be the streets of Monte Carlo hosting the team’s very public roll of the dice as they attempt to turn around this season and future endeavours. The stakes could not be higher.
“Last year we were a little bit lost in terms of how to fix the issue that we had,” he said in Monaco. “I feel like the team now have a north star, they know exactly where they need to go and we’re working on how to get there.” The British driver however considered it a reasonable opening for the new car. “It’s not the place to ultimately test an upgrade but the car was generally feeling good,” he said. “Ultimately it’s a bit of a shame we weren’t as close as I hoped at the end of the session but definitely felt the improvements. We’ve just got to keep chipping away at it. Hopefully this gives us a platform to work on moving forwards.
