Mercedes-AMG debuted its livery of the W13 F1 E Performance on Friday, returning to its traditional Silver Arrows for Lewis Hamilton and George Russell this season.
The team said in a release that the W13 “is 98% new and freshly designed from tip-to-toe with minimal carry-over from its predecessor.” Formula One, as a whole, faced significant technical regulation changes.
“It just takes you back to being a kid,” Hamilton said at the launch. “I think it’s always exciting watching. With this new era of car, we’ve never seen such a drastic change, right?
“So it’s such a huge change in so many ways, that it’s just been really interesting seeing the designers and everyone coming together to find the best ways of creating a masterpiece.
