Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff says “the previous two years were necessary for us to readjust, recalibrate, and reinvent ourselves in certain areas”.
After Mercedes launched their 2024 challenger, team boss Toto Wolff said the harsh lessons of the previous two years were necessary for the team’s growth.
“As the saying goes: when it stings, it sticks,” the Austrian said.
“I believe the previous two years were necessary for us to readjust, recalibrate, and reinvent ourselves in certain areas.
“No sports team that has won every single championship they participated in. That is just a fact.

“I think we pushed the needle very far, but we also knew that there would be a time when things would become more challenging. And this is what happened in 2022 and 2023.
“But it also means that you are obliged to change without throwing away all the goodness already in the team. You want to keep the good parts and work on the things that you need to develop.
“That root-and-branch approach is never easy. But we’ve made progress and look forward to taking the next step with the W15.
“It won’t be a linear path, but when we stumble, we will get back up and keep on climbing.” Wolff concluded.
