However, it is only mathematical certificate for what was basically certainly for weeks. The season was already moving in that direction a few months and now the competition could also be mathematically convinced that the silver shines and shines again. There was no particular disappointment to be seen, as this did not happen surprisingly. “Of course, I’m not happy with the fact that we didn’t have the desired year, but neither today, nor yesterday, nor last week made any difference. I don’t believe we are missing anything. I think we are very committed and working hard, but that is not yet the level we want to reach. Mercedes has shown in recent years that this can be done better. I don't think we should work even harder, but better,” he says Sebastian Vettel.

The team - it has to be acknowledged - that basically always returns the blow, which always shows great performances, which does learns from mistakes and to some extent also forces it to be luck on her side. “Seen from the outside, this is difficult, but I think they are almost at perfection every time. Very steady, they make only very small mistakes. It’s certainly also part of what makes her so strong, but if you win the constructors ’title four races before the end of the championship, then you do a lot of things better than everyone else,” he says Hag.

If we go to details, they could argue about where they are silver arrows better than Ferrari, but this is not the main point, adds the German. “It’s about the work of the whole team. I think we have all the spices, we have engagement, we have intelligence, but we need to do a better job. This is not about one thing that we need to improve, rather it is about many smaller things that we need to do better, each individual on the team and that is the only option we can try to improve," so Hag, who adds jokingly: "I hope they get a little bored at Mercedes already, we’ll see what happens."
