When Mercedes unveiled the W13, everyone thought they had done it again.
It was not just fans and the media wondering if Mercedes had pulled off a masterstroke with a Red Bull team member revealing his thoughts as they unveiled their 2022 car design.
Calum Nicholas is a senior power unit assembly technician and operator of the right rear wheel gun for Red Bull and admitted he was concerned when he first saw the W13. Nicholas had every right to feel at ease. While the RB18 was not the quickest at the start of the season, it soon surpassed the benchmark set by Ferrari and would go on to win both championships. Mercedes meanwhile found porpoising to be the bane of their existence and for the first time since 2013, were no longer one of the top teams.“Obviously until the times start coming in and the race results, you’re never sure,” Nicholas continued.
