Toto Wolff knows there is still much work to be done for Mercedes to compete at the level they are used to despite some strong results in recent races.
The Silver Arrows cannot compete with Red Bull and Ferrari for pace this year, but have generally been there to take full advantage when one of the front runners slips up. They showed that from the off in Bahrain, when Lewis Hamilton and George Russell finished third and fourth as Red Bull suffered a double DNF.
More recently, Russell was on the podium in Spain and Azerbaijan – strong results in maintaining his record of top-five finishes in every race so far this year. Hamilton, meanwhile, drove through his back pain to fourth in Baku before adding another podium to his collection last time out in Canada.
