The Mercedes Hamilton team pulled the covers off its new W14 car during a special presentation at Silverstone on Wednesday, with the team returning to the black livery it used during the 2020 and 2021 season – this time via exposed carbon fiber for weight savings.
Speaking at the W14 launch, Hamilton said: “I’ve been part of this team for over a decade and everyone’s efforts never cease to amaze me. I am inspired by how diligently and passionately each person approaches their work. Seeing the evolution of the car and the changes that have been made is fascinating. We’ve redesigned, optimized and innovated so many parts of the car and it’s impressive.”
As for how he feels after the winter break, Hamilton added: “I’m excited to be racing again. I feel calm, energized and focused. I’m ready to do whatever it takes to win.”
Hamilton starts the new season in pursuit of the all-time record for F1 world titles, with the Briton and Michael Schumacher level on seven championships each.
