P1racenews AI automatic summary:
The Mercedes drivers feel there is nothing to be concerned about over a trend that has affected them throughout the season.
George Russell and Lewis Hamilton are not concerned about a key trend that has been noticed with Mercedes during the 2023 season. The team has improved its performance since the start of the season, overtaking Ferrari and Aston Martin in the running order. By changing their car design in Monaco, Mercedes was able to consistently challenge for podium finishes and move ahead of Ferrari in the Constructors’ Championship. Despite facing difficult race weekends, the team often manages to turn things around between practice, qualifying, and the actual race. Russell and Hamilton see this as a learning experience and believe that they have found a reliable setup for the car, which will help them in the remaining races and in the future. Ferrari and other teams also experiment with setup direction during practice sessions. Hamilton didn’t have any additional comments to add to Russell’s statement.
