The scorching battle at the F1 Austrian GP: Mercedes struggles as temperatures rise

As the F1 Austrian Grand Prix unfolds, an intense showdown is brewing under the blazing sun. The rising temperatures on the track are proving to be a formidable opponent for the Mercedes team, particularly impacting drivers George Russell and Andrea Kimi Antonelli.

During Friday’s FP1 session, George Russell showcased impressive performance, leading the pack. However, as the day progressed, the soaring temperatures began to take a toll on both Russell and Antonelli. The W16 chassis of the Mercedes cars is facing a significant challenge in the hot weather conditions, primarily due to heat retention in the tires.

While the Mercedes cars excel in heating up the tires quickly, they struggle to maintain the rear tire temperatures within the optimal range, hampering their overall performance. With track temperatures reaching a scorching 47 degrees Celsius, the silver arrows may find it difficult to contend for pole position.

In the face of Mercedes’ struggles, Ferrari sees a glimmer of hope to seize the opportunity and potentially outpace their rivals. The competitive landscape is heating up, and the stage is set for an electrifying battle on the track.

Stay tuned as the F1 Austrian GP continues to unfold, with teams vying for supremacy under the relentless sun.
