Looking at the progression in the last few races, their deg, their low speed performance, the efficiency, I expect them to be matching RB and Mclaren, maybe even surpass them (in Austria already, or in a few races).venkyhere wrote: ↑28 Jun 2024, 13:47Looks amazingly consistent.

Shows how good Allison is, at least on par with Newey.

Mercedes is fast, I'm sure tomorrow they will improve their qualifications, they left before everyone else, the condition of the track was constantly improvingj_ste wrote: ↑28 Jun 2024, 17:18Top 2 teams are miles ahead...You talk yourself into the optimism and then feel foolish for doing so.

"We are missing 10km/h in turns 7-8-9 and that's not something we can find for tomorrow." Nevertheless, Toto Wolff explained that in any case Mercedes will implement changes to the setup ahead of Saturday afternoon's Qualifying, then after the sprint race, partly because the one used today did not give the desired results. "It's always a very fine balance of looking for the perfect setup and using the tires in the right window. We always talk about details, a millimeter more or less in the height can make a difference." The Mercedes Team Principal pointed out that the curbs at the Red Bull Ring force the car up a bit so as not to damage the bottom. Another important element is the temperatures "There were 12 degrees more in Qualifying, this also makes a difference."

Their win in 2022 came at a Sprint weekend. Merc are not especially bad on sprint weekends. It just comes down to car performance for that circuit. After Spain, Toto Wolff said he wasn't confident about Austria, and was more confident about Silverstone. This looks to be somewhat confirmed. They can still have a good race because you need more than speed to finish in a good position.
