What if Mercedes’ Imola upgrade doesn’t work? “If they don’t see what they want…”
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell’s ♛troublesome W14 will feature developments next weekend at the F1 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, finally an injection of good news after a slow start to the season.
However, they have been dealt a dose of reality by ex-IndyCar racer Patri𒐪ck.
“If this does really work and, at Imola, they get going better than will look like an entirely different season m🐬oving forwards,” she said on Sky.
“Th🎐e test will be if they don’t see what they want to see.
“They have a high expectation that it doesn’t live up to it, but they don’t make eno📖ugh progress, then🏅 the test will be going into a triple-header.
“You’ve got to keep cool, s🥃tay positive, k🌸now there is more racing to be done.
“If the upgrade really does 🧸work,꧋ it will be a big deal for them.”
Former F1 driver Jenson Button added that there wil🌊l be some expectation surrounding Mercedes now: “They have, because they’ve told us that they’ve got a big upgrade coming at Imola.
“It’s🎉 a big w𝓀eekend for them. We are all excited by it, we need people jumping up the grid to fight the front guys.
“Hopefully it will put them in a place where they can fight Aston Mart🌃in. They won’t fight the Red Bull yet.
“For Fern𝓀ando Alonso he wants the competition, he loves the competition witꦓh Lewis.”
Are Red Bull concerned?
“It's still a lo🐎ng season and [Mercedes] have got a lo🎐t of development time available to them,” Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said.
🙈"Let's see I keep hearing of massive upgrades for Mercedes c🐭oming and significant ones for Ferrari.
"So, you know, if they do have a B-spec car then, you know, things can change quite quiಌckly."
Red Bull have won all five grands prix of 2023 head꧒ing into Emilia Romagna next weekend.
