P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Mercedes suffered a difficult Brazilian Grand Prix last weekend as it scored just four points through Lewis Hamilton, with the car uncompetitive throughout the event.
Mercedes Team Principal, Toto Wolff, clarified that their conservative set up approach was not responsible for their lack of pace in Brazil. Hamilton’s disqualification in the United States Grand Prix due to an illegal skid block did not influence their strategy. Mercedes had limited time to set up their cars before entering parc fermé conditions, and Hamilton’s car was discovered to be illegal after the race. Despite running the car at a higher level to prevent similar issues, their performance throughout the weekend was below par. A mechanical issue, rather than the car’s set up, was identified as the main reason for their poor performance.
