Wolff’s team teased developments to their W14 as early as next weekend’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 Azerbaijan Grand Prix as they bid to hunt down the Red Bulls.

The team principal has now been handed a glowing review by Russell as the F1 ‘spring break’ gets set to conclude.

“He’s been an integral part of my career,” Russell said t🅺o Square Mile.

“Hig💎hly intelligent, a charismatic bloke, he’s been a huge part of the success of the team and is going to be a huge part of the return of Mercedes after wh🦩at’s been a difficult season.

“A huge motivator, an unbelievable lead🌞er, he gives everybody his time. 𓄧;

“It doesn’t matter if they are a chief aerodynamicist or working on the♔ shop floor, he respects everybody. 

“I think that’s why he still has such 🐬a team around him and so much trust. I feel fortunate to work with such a ꦐgreat guy.”

It had previously been thought that Mercedes might have to wait until the Emilia-Romagna G💞rand Prix at the end of May to bring upgrades bu❀t Wolff has offered a new clue.

"We will cꦗonsistently be bringing upgrades to the car over the next few races, whichꦫ is something to look forward to,” Wolff said in a Q&A published on Mercedes’ website. 

“But there is no such thing as a magic bullet that transforms the car, and it's about being realistic with your expectations. Hopefu♉lly we will see a steady improvement.”

However, ꦑRussell returns to F1 knowing a grid penalty looms later this year.

His eng൩ine, which was on fire and caused his retirement from the F1 Australian Grand Prix, is not salvageable according to German publication . 

It means he will use a second V6 engine in Baku next weekend, with only three permiꦚtted in the whole🅰 of 2023.
