Mercedes is 'finally' going in the right direction with its F1 car following the problems created by the 'spiteful' W13, according to Hamilton.
Lewis Hamilton says that the development path of his Mercedes Formula 1 team is now going in the right direction as it moves on from last year's"spiteful" W13.After a difficult start to the 2023 season, the team began its pursuit of a different concept when it introduced the first tranche of upgrades to the current W14 model in Monaco.
"But then you put them on the car, and the car would bounce more. And so finally this year, we're starting to make changes to the car that actually do improve the car, and don't add more bouncing." "I think we're still turning. But we've got progress, real, real progress that's coming over the next coming months, which is really exciting to see.
"Confidence is a huge thing," he said."You have to have confidence in the stability of the car. You have to be confident that when you carry 150-180 miles an hour into a corner, the car is going to be with you and support you through that. "Ultimately, there are fundamental changes that have to change for next year. And I've been asking for it for over a year. So I expect to have that in future, which I think will definitely help.
