Toto Wolff believes his Mercedes team can still fight for the Formula 1 title, after a battling performance from Lewis Hamilton at the Spanish Grand Prix. Mercedes have endured a difficult start to 2022, having struggled to find the pace they have shown in recent years in their new car.
The reigning constructors’ champions currently find themselves in third in the standings, as their winless start leaves them 75 points behind leaders Red Bull. Despite their struggles it seemed as if the Silver Arrows found the much-needed pace they had been searching for after George Russell secured a third-place finish, whilst Hamilton came in fifth.
The seven-time world champion’s performance in Barcelona was an impressive one, after suffering a collision and a puncture in the opening lap of the race.
