What has gone wrong for Mercedes?

“We’re a long way off the pace of Red Bull, Ferrari, even the likes oౠf AlphaTauri, Alfa Romeo are se✅emingly on our pace or even quicker," said George Russell. 

“It’s clear it’s all about lap time 🅠and we are certainly not where we want to be,” he saꦚid. “I think we made a bit of progress solving some issues but the pace is just not there at the moment."

Hamilton's warning to Verstappen

Asked whether he has considered changing his whee🍃l-to-wheel approach in order to combat Verstap🍎pen’s more aggressive stance, Hamilton replied: “I will be a more aggressive driver this year. You’ll see.”

“I’m hoping my 𓄧guys have come up with some sort of solution going into this weekend and when I get in t🅠he car today it feels better.

“But I know there’s not a huge change in such a short space of time. So we'll still most likely have some of the problems that we 🌠had l☂ast week. 

“Mentally, it’s just about making sure you are extracting everyt𒁏hing in every other area. All I can do is control how I’m performing in the car, just trying to be positive and knowing that we are all working together in the team. 

“It is the best team and I’m very grateful for the grou🧔p of people I have behind me, so confident we can make it through somehow.” 

Verstappen sarcastically suggested Mercedes would finish “dead last” this season because they have developed an “awful car”, in what appeared to be a swipe at the reigning world cham꧟pions repeatedly downplaying its prospects for 2022. 

"I thinꦜk they'll be dead last,” Verstappen said. “According to their comments – I think they have an awful car, and they've had that already since 2017 in pre-season testing. 

“No, we'l🐽l find out. But they for sure will be competitive🅘.” 

Hamilton fine confirmed - it will be invested into diversity and inclusion

The FIA have confirmed that Hamilton’s♏ fine for failing to attend the 2021 end-♎of-year gala will be paid as a donation to diversity and inclusion.

Hamilton met with the FIA president Mohammed Bin Sulayem this wee𒐪k.

“In the spirit of commitment to building a more diverse sport🗹 in the future, the FIA president gave his full support to Hamilton’s donation of 50,000 Euros that will be used to support a student from a disadvantaged background in achieving an educational qualification in motorsport,” an FIA statement read.

The seven-time world champion had shared his findings from the ꦍHamilton Commission.

“The FIA reminded Hamilton of hi🌟s obღligation of sportsmanship, particularly in view of his status in motorsport,” the statement concluded.
