Toto Wolff has joked Max Verstappen had “lots of opportunities” to look at Mercedes’ improved F1 car after 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton won the 2024 British Grand Prix.

Mercedes continued to show an impressive level of improvement at Silverstone as they locked out the front-row as 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell secured his second pole position of the campaign.

In the dry conditions, Mercedes had the🗹 fastest car as they pulled away from the McLarens and Verstappen behind.

A great drive by Hamilton - combined with perfect strategy - allowed the seven-time world champion t🏅o take his first win since 2021, ahead of Verstappen.

Merce❀des’ upturn in performances comes at an interes✨ting time given they’re still yet to announce Russell’s teammate for next year.

Wolff remain꧟s interested in signing Verstappen, 🌸who has insisted he will remain loyal to Red Bull, particularly as they have the best car in F1.

Speaking after the race at Silverstone, where 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:ltxcn.top were present in the paddock, Wolff was asked whether Mercedes’ improved form could influence Verstappen’s decisꦦion to join the team.

He replied: “I don🐷’t know. He [Verstappen] has lots of oppor🌼tunities to look at the car in the race.”

Mercedes' recovery to the front of F1 could influence whether they opt to place a rookie, like Antonelli, in the car, over 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz.

However, Wolff shrugged off suggestions that their better performances ꧟will have an impact on their choice in terms of a second 🔴driver for 2025.

“I don’t t༒hink… It doesn’t influence our thinking,” he added. “I’ve always said ❀we need a car that goes quick, and when we have a car that goes quick, we put the driver in, and we get it interesting for our main drivers.

“In a way, I think we need to stay calm, and continue the season, continue 🌱to focus on the car, and then look at whether the options are still the same.

“But it’s not like there’s changing everyt﷽hing upside down.”
