Mercedes has promised its drivers that it will not be \u201cclinging on\u201d to any of the current concepts for its 2024 Formula 1 car, after laying down ambitious performance targets.
With it clear that both men want big changes for next year, Mercedes trackside engineering director Andrew Shovlin has explained that the squad is taking on board everything being said to make a leap forward for 2024.
"And whilst they might be identifying different causes of it, we know that, fundamentally, the car doesn't have enough stability. "Whilst you might see different comments in the press, the two of them are very aligned on where the weaknesses are, and where we need to improve it. We can see the GPS from other cars and that all ties in. So, you can build a picture of where you need to develop.
Shovlin said it was too early to know whether or not the W15 design was producing what the team hoped for, but the squad was not shying away from the hard work that it needed to put in.
