Mercedes rookie Andrea Kimi Antonelli believes the team's ill-fated suspension change cost him "two or three months" of development during his first Formula 1 season.
Mercedes introduced a tweaked rear suspension geometry at Imola's Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix, back in May, as it further tried to home in on its relative lack of low-speed performance and its rear tyre temperature issues, taking inspiration from what McLaren's class leading MCL39 was doing on the rear of the car.
