George Russell has moved to lower expectations about Mercedes’ new floor that will debut at the F1 United States Grand Prix, insisting it ‘won’t change the world’.
Mercedes are bringing a modified floor to this weekend’s race at the Circuit of the Americas as they look to balance their quest to claim second place in the constructors’ championship alongside learning for 2024.
“It’s the last big one,” Russell told Sky on Thursday. “Altogether, full focus is on ’24 back at the factory and in the windtunnel and the design office.“I think the things we’ve got lined up for next season should have a much greater impact than this weekend.”Asked if it was closer to the direction Red Bull have successfully used in getting their ultra-dominant RB19 to work, Russell replied: “No, I wouldn’t say so.
“Because from the time of putting it in the windtunnel, understanding what you want, then you go to manufacturing, then get it actually to the car, it’s a long process of work. But we’ve made some interesting finds recently.Stroll’s stubborn reply to shove and love of F1 does himself no favours
