Toto Wolff: Kimi did a solid job. We lost two and a half tenths with this part that touched the car. The job went well, I like what he did. We are a bit sceptical because on Friday night in Austin, if Lewis had finished the lap, we would have been four tenths faster than Verstappen. We need to see how the weekend goes and not just on Friday.
Rear wing damaged and front wing completely ripped off too, gonna be an expensive repair
Too much kerb, drifted onto the astro it seems.
At 7 p.m. local time, Mercedes decided to replace the monocoque. The engine and gearbox appeared to have survived.
Russell destroyed the Imola version of the floor and many other parts that went with it in his crash in the second practice session. It was used until the Belgian GP and then again in Baku and Singapore. The spare parts store was better stocked with this specification than with the latest components. The monocoque had to be replaced. Nevertheless, the recent accidents are beginning to embarrass Mercedes. “This is not ideal for the cost cap,” said team boss Toto Woff contritely.
