Toto, I have a feeling we're not #1 anymore

10/23/22 New Yorker

"Toto Wolff, the Compulsive Perfectionist Behind Mercedes’s Formula 1 Team

Mercedes drivers, including Lewis Hamilton, dominated the world’s fastest motorsport for a decade. Now they can’t win a race."

Agree, it's good the New Yorker does it in a different way to what is read in some of the F1 magazines.

Sure . And hopefully they show who the spy Shaila-Ann Rao actually is ..
Who she is and how she tipped Mercedes multiple times with private protected FIA information about Red Bull's technical and financial data .

"At the start of the 2021 season, Wolff sent an all-staff e-mail asking employees—everyone from aerodynamicists to catering staff—to find out who their opposite number was at Red Bull. “Look at him/her every day,” Wolff wrote. “Put the picture right in front of you so you know whom to beat.”"

Current facts: 0/20 in Grand Prix races, 0/2 in Sprint races and their archrival got the 2022 WDC and 2022 WCC.

The urge to win at least the Brazil or Abu Dhabi GP race will be palpable in the Mercedes garage.
