Mercedes is the eighth team to unveil the car for the 2022 Formula 1 season. With this live stream, follow the unveiling of the Mercedes-AMG F1 W13 E Performance.
After years of dominating Formula 1, Mercedes faces a significant year in 2022. The engines will remain the same, but the cars will be completely different. While the engine will still have a major impact on performance, as a team you cannot afford to make a misstep with the design of the car.
Pressure on Mercedes
As the reigning world champion, Mercedes also has the disadvantage of having the least amount of time in the wind tunnel. With the descending scale, they, therefore, have a number of runs less to test than Red Bull Racing and Ferrari. Red Bull can do two more runs per week and Ferrari even four runs. This could prove costly if Mercedes have early-season issues.
However, this is not what the team is assuming. With Lewis Hamilton and George Russell they will want to compete for prizes again and present the new W13 with pride. During this livestream Russell, Hamilton and also Toto Wolff will talk to you about the new car. The presentation starts at 9am.
