Mercedes can still win a Grand Prix this year, says Damon Hill – but only if there is a "crazy race" before the end of the season.
Six races remain on the 2022 calendar, and still the Silver Arrows await their first victory. Lewis Hamilton and George Russell have driven well and barely put a foot wrong, but their reliable car has been scuppered by a lack of pace and trouble with porpoising earlier in the campaign.
That performance deficit has left Mercedes unable to compete with Red Bull and Ferrari on the track. That has been a tough pill to swallow for a team used to dominating Formula 1 – their eight-year streak of winning the constructors' championship is about to come to an end.
