Recently, the Mercedes tweeted a video where technical director, James Allison highlighted the difference between 2018’s W09 and 2019’s W10. All in all, it was a very informative video. He mostly explained that the biggest differences between the two cars are the regulations for their respective years.
The W10 will soon be seen in action when the Australian GP swings by. So far, they have not had such a great time during pre-season testing, where Ferrari have the edge. Hopefully for their sake, they manage to iron out all the issues within these two weeks so that we can get a proper fight, with possibly Red Bull joining the fun.
Two silver @F1 siblings, side by side. But how do W10 and its predecessor compare? James Allison explains all! 👇 pic.twitter.com/xGRXsvpCpa

Kudos to @MercedesAMGF1 and James Allison for the detailed and open explanation of some of the development of the W10. His pride and joy in the car and the team shines through.

Excellent explanation. Kudos to Mercedes, and if the cars are as matched to the red machines as seen in testing then the ace card will be @LewisHamilton who has an ability to extract the minutest gains possible. Roll on 10 days time

Some lovely phrases in here: vacuum packed, teeny-weeny changes, ‘breathless days in the wind tunnel’. I’m going to write a song with that line. 🎸🎼🎤 @MercedesAMGF1 @f1 #f1 https://t.co/3g5e4qy7cc
