James Allison has hinted that Mercedes’ 2024 F1 car will look different to its predecessors due to changes made to the team’s processes.
Mercedes’ dominance in Formula 1 has been challenged by Red Bull in recent years, with Mercedes only winning one race since the regulation changes in 2022. As a result, Mercedes decided to abandon their controversial concept and make significant changes to their W15 challenger for the 2024 season. The concept, according to Mercedes technical director Allison, is not just about the car itself, but about the process of determining what improves lap time. Mercedes has adjusted their approach and methodology, resulting in different hardware and decisions. Allison emphasized that the end result is exciting, but their success is ultimately determined by their approach.
