Mercedes investigating George Russell's British GP top speed issue

Mercedes is probing the top speed issue that hindered George Russell's performance during the British Grand Prix qualifying, where he lagged almost four tenths behind teammate Kimi Antonelli, particularly on the Hangar Straight where Antonelli's speed was around 6km/h faster. This discrepancy, despite similar energy usage by both drivers, raises questions about Mercedes' aerodynamic efficiency and could impact their competitive edge in future races. Team principal Toto Wolff's investigation aims to uncover the root cause, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a strong performance edge in Formula 1.
