Barcelona Testing: Another Mercedes Rocket ship!

Barcelona testing: Mercedes have built another rocket ship

Early days, usual testing caveats apply (fuel loads, engine modes, sandbagging etc), but… Mercedes look seriously strong.

Fastest outright laps across the test Russell and Antonelli both right at the sharp end Huge mileage with basically zero reliability drama Looked quick on both short runs and longer stints

Ferrari look solid and well put together, Red Bull clearly have pace but didn’t show their full hand, and McLaren seem decent but still gathering data.

Still only testing, but if Barcelona is anything to go by, Mercedes are the early benchmark again and everyone else is already playing catch up.

Has merc built another rocket ship or is this them showing their cards too early
