Toto Wolff believes today’s Mexican Grand Prix is Mercedes’ best chance yet of winning an F1 race this season MexicoGP

Russell called his final lap “terrible”, while Hamilton had an engine oscillation problem that impacted his last effort as he reported feeling power drop outs.cars may benefit from getting a tow from Verstappen on the run from the starting grid to Turn 1, which is one of the longest of the season. Mercedes has typically performed better in race pace than through qualifying, but team principal Wolff was uneasy about expressing confidence it had the car to win on Sunday.

“I think in all my life, there’s only a handful of occasions that I’ve been confident, and never in Formula 1,” said Wolff. “So the truth is I don’t know. “I’m annoyed about not being on pole, because it would have ticked a box, but equally having Max with his top speed advantage behind us would have been a problem tomorrow.

“Starting second and third can be advantageous, and I hope we can stick our nose or both noses into Turn 1 and disappear into the distance.Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes AMG, on the grid after Qualifying

He also believed everything will be better with Masi gone.

Toto Wolff says Red Bull penalty is 'too little for Mercedes, too much for Red Bull'Mercedes' Toto Wolff says losing R&D time will hurt Red Bull, but how detrimental it will be is 'difficult to judge at this stage'. Toto just can’t stop crying 😂😂😂 With Adrian Newey up there I doubt there will be too much trouble if they loose the wind tunnel time. No reputation damage whatsoever for Ted Bull. Only this. Wolffs scary tentacles at work. With whiner Lulu and British biassed media empowering it. Btw. Red Bull have Newey. Engineering GOAT. He doesnt need much windtunnel time.

Wolff: Mexico is Mercedes’ best F1 chance yet of winning this seasonToto Wolff believes the Mexican Grand Prix feels like Mercedes’ best chance yet of winning a Formula 1 race this season, starting from second and third on the grid. Come on George ⬆️ Certainly is! Whilst a lot of people think it’s imperative to get ahead of Max at turn 1, I actually think keeping Perez behind is key to victory today! Pace seems good & they got a great chance to beat Max on strategy! Just depends which driver they’ll give the advantage to! So was zandvoort yet max pulled 10s after safety car.
