    It’s going to be wild if Merc gets their shit together and Lewis jumps ship at the wrong time. Time will tell.

      Contrary to us though, he has had a taste of how good this car is in the simulators and still jumped ship. Time will indeed tell everyone but that’s not encouraging.

        We’ve seen how McLaren turned the tables last year. Merc dumped their zero pod design also half way the season, and they caught up quite well. So now a full season on a concept that seems to suit them better. Take a few good upgrades and who knows. Will they challenge RB from day 1 ? Don’t think so, but I can see them catching up later throughout the season. Again time will tell, but I don’t rule them out in any form or shape.
