Hamilton: Wolff and Mercedes under “huge” pressure to deliver in F1 2024
“After a winless campaign, Mercedes is looking to bounce back with an all-new car concept for its 2024 W15 challenger. However, seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton warns that there is little room for error in the new ground effect era and that the pressure is on for the team and its boss, Toto Wolff. Hamilton believes that the team needs to lean on its members and find constructive ways to inspire and motivate them. He acknowledges that Mercedes has struggled to find direction in the past two seasons but is now more encouraged with the changes made, including the return of technical director James Allison and a switch of car concept. Hamilton compares the team’s development to building a wall, noting that while Red Bull was able to make continuous improvements, Mercedes had to tear down and rebuild.
