“Nothing can compete with the glitter of Monaco”
Toto Wolff, the boss of the Mercedes team, is curious to see how the Silver Arrow will behave in the narrow streets of the Principality of Monaco.
After a rather encouraging Spanish Grand Prix for the reigning world champion team, Mercedes is tackling the most glamorous event on the F1 calendar this weekend, not without some apprehension.
Toto Wolff is indeed aware that the characteristics of the Monegasque circuit could not work in favor of their single-seater.
“We were encouraged by our result at the Spanish Grand Prixcomments the boss of the Mercedes team. We’re still learning from this car and improving it all the time, and I would say we took a step in the right direction in Barcelona. »
“The next race on the calendar is already here, and it is clear that nothing can compete with the glitter of Monaco! It’s always a joy to see the drivers push their cars to the limit in these narrow streets. »
“It’s a track that’s both unique and demanding. Monaco haven’t always smiled on us in recent years, nor have slow corners been our strength this season as we saw again last weekend in Barcelona. But we also saw that anything could happen this year and we will try to maximize any opportunity that will be offered to us. »
