Mercedes detail ‘very ambitious targets’ for 2024 F1 car with big changes coming
Due to their struggles in the past two seasons, Mercedes is planning a major overhaul of their car design for 2024 in an effort to catch up with Red Bull. The current Mercedes car, W14, has had issues with handling and balance, especially in high-speed corners, causing both Lewis Hamilton and George Russell to lack confidence. The development of the 2024 Mercedes challenger will focus heavily on addressing these weaknesses. Changes to the car have already been made, but it is still in the early stages of development, and the team is unsure if all the handling issues can be solved. Mercedes is not holding onto any previous concepts and is working towards ambitious targets. Lewis Hamilton has been vocal about the need for changes and has visited the Mercedes designers to discuss the problems.
