Team silver arrows started the new season with a big lagthat they are ranked higher, however, can be attributed to problems with other teams, especially Red Bull Racing.
Po eight design titles one will have to get used to it Mercedes he will no longer be able to compete for victory. Problems with the race car W13 they are still too big, therefore Lewis Hamilton in George Russell you can’t keep up with the pace Ferrari in Red Bull Racing. Although Mercedes is currently on second place design championship, they must thank for their place primarily problems with reliability at Red Bullu. Max Verstappen has recorded his second resignation in three races and is zero in Bahrain also had Perez, which he is Russell allowed him to climb to second place in the racing rankings, as he also is Sainz at Ferrari in Australia left without points.
He seems to have W13 problems with new regulations. The car suffers greatly from porpoising. Besides Mercedes engine it is no longer what it used to be, which is why their partner teams also have problems with competitiveness. The team is staffed with finding a solution, but even competitors are not standing still in terms of further development. And because of that Coulthard doubts it will Mercedes managed to catch up with a rival at the top. “I think this will be a long and difficult season for them. No one will stand still in terms of development and that is their problem. Because of this, they need to take huge steps forward and not small ones. In my experience, this never happens during the season,”The Scot told Channel 4.
