Toto Wolff says Mercedes is performing “large surgery” on the W14 and will be “introducing new bodywork and a new floor and new front suspension”.
After another difficult weekend in Miami, Mercedes is now pinning their hopes on their big upgrade expected to be introduced at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.
After the Miami Grand Prix, team boss Toto Wolff said the upgrade is a major reworking of the W14.
“I think we are chasing downforce and we are trying to do the best possible job in terms of the mechanical platform,” the Austrian said.

“So what we are doing is introducing new bodywork and a new floor and new front suspension. That is a pretty large operation, large surgery.
“There is going to be a lot of learning. In the virtual world, it is good lap time.”
Wolff then added the upgrade will determine Mercedes’ new development direction.
“The upgrade we are bringing is going to help us to set the direction, to understand the various areas we believe could play a role in why the car is so poisonous to drive,” he concluded.
