Toto Wolff indicates a need for strategic changes in Mercedes' setup and tire management after a challenging Miami GP Sprint.
In a revealing reflection on the Miami GP Sprint, Mercedes Team Principal Toto Wolff expressed dissatisfaction with both car setup and strategy.
For the Mercedes team, it was a race that cast a spotlight on the urgent modifications needed, as communicated by Team Principal Toto Wolff. A significant concern brought to light during the sprint was the Mercedes cars’ underperformance on medium tyres, which Toto Wolff pointedly criticized. He commented to"I don’t think you can expect a lot in a Sprint race. There was not lots of overtaking. You can see a quick car on the straight like Ricciardo is able to hold back the train and end up where he started.
"I think the penalty for pit-lane speeding, these things can happen… these errors. In that respect I think the pace of the car was not so bad today, from the limited amount we were able to see there."We weren’t working the mediums at all . Literally zero grip, and then you get all the snaps and you have no performance anymore. It’s no excuse. We’ve seen it with other teams, McLaren in Q3 on the softs and suddenly going backwards.
The team now has just a few couple of hours to get the set-up changed for Qualifying for the Grand Prix.
