Mercedes returns to silver: First look at the W13

GPFans Staff Friday 18 February 2022 09:30 Updated: 09:38

Mercedes has unveiled its W13 challenger ahead of the upcoming F1 season.

The Silver Arrows enter the new year motivated by the events of last year's season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, where Lewis Hamilton missed out on an eighth world championship to rival Max Verstappen.

The W13 is the first car made by the Brackley-based team to comply to the new regulations brought in by F1 which aim to create closer, more exciting racing.

Hamilton is joined by former Williams driver George Russell, who becomes the first driver from the Mercedes junior programme to fully graduate to the factory team.
