George Russell is confident that Mercedes will have a better season in 2024 because the development of their car concept will not be rushed like it was last year. The team attempted a zero-sidepod design but struggled to make it work. After Russell’s win in Brazil, they continued with the concept for the following season but soon realized they needed to change their approach. Russell believes that next year’s car will be more competitive as it has been developed for a longer period of time and a lot of due diligence has gone into the new concept. Despite Red Bull’s dominance this year, Russell is optimistic but cautious about predicting how close Mercedes will be to them in the upcoming season.
