Toto says Aston Martin changed their development approach “and they came back strong”, so if Mercedes does the same “maybe” they can “chase the Red Bulls”.
Lewis Hamilton says Mercedes has “some work to do”, because Aston Martin did “such an amazing job”, and they ‘built their car in Mercedes’ wind tunnel’.
Toto says Aston Martin “gained two seconds in half a year and their car is half ours, from the engine, gearbox and rear suspension, and using the same wind tunnel”.
Toto Wolff says Mercedes gave its car concept “our best go over the winter”, and now it’s time to “decide what is the development direction that we want to pursue”.
