Questions have arisen about Mercedes’ attractiveness to potential 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton replacements after a dreadful F1 Australian Grand Prix.

Hamilton and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell were both unable to finish the race, the latest setback in a season which has sta꧋rted badly for the team.

Hamilton was left frustrated by an engine issue which caused an e🐲arly retirement🤪 before Russell crashed out on the last lap.

The wider༺ picture is that Mer💯cedes are seeking a replacement for Ferrari-bound Hamilton for 2025.

But, they are also under pressure to prove themselves as 🅠a worthy destination for a top driver🧸.

“Tough times for Mercedꦕes,” Sky Sports’ Naomi Schiff reacted.

“This is the third season in the era of new 𒉰F1 cars and they haven’t qu𒐪ite got on top of it.

“Besides th𒈔e fact that the🌸y had a mechanical issue, and George had an issue, they didn’t have the pace that they needed.

ꦕ“The car is so unpredictable for the team to understand. Whether it’s one side of the garage or not, it still doesn’t have the pace that they need to challenge. It’s a tough one.

“Lewis 💎is going to Ferrari and they need to be a team with appeal꧃ for whoever they might give that seat to in the future.

“At the momenꦅt, is Mercedes a team that drivers want to go to?

“They finished second in the championship last year but we need to see t💝hem moving forwards to be an 🌊attractive proposition.

“At⛄ the moment, it doesn’t seem that they have the situation under control.”

𝓀Ironically the winner of theไ F1 Australian Grand Prix, Carlos Sainz, is out of a job next year because Hamilton will replace him at Ferrari.

Sainz is on the market and could come into consideraꦓtion꧃ for Toto Wolff.

Aston Martin driver Fernan𒀰do Alonso is a big-name possibility while Alpine’s Esteban Ocon has been mentioned as a stopgap solution.

Andrea Kimi 🌞Antonelli, Mercedes’ teenage junior driver w✅ho is currently in Formula 2, is also an option.

But before Wolff even makes his huge𒆙 decision, Mercedes know that they must rectify a bad weekend in Australia to get Hamilton’s final season with the team back on course.
