P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Mercedes has committed to a new concept for the 2024 W15 machine in its Red Bull pursuit.
Mercedes driver George Russell stated that the team cannot promise to definitively catch up to Red Bull in 2024. Red Bull has been the dominant team in Formula 1, winning multiple championships and the majority of Grand Prix races since 2022. On the other hand, Mercedes has struggled with the new regulations and has only managed one win with Russell in Brazil. The team plans to adopt a more Red Bull-like design for their 2024 car, but Russell believes it is not possible to guarantee catching up to Red Bull. He acknowledges the flaws in their current car and the need for improvement. His teammate, Lewis Hamilton, shares the same sentiment and emphasizes that the team’s focus should be on themselves rather than solely closing the gap to Red Bull.
