Star driver Lewis Hamilton sits tenth in the drivers’ championship, while his team-mate George Russell is not much better off in seventh.

Changes in track temperature has seen the German manufacturer fall off at some events, with Hamilton even eliminated in Q2 in Melbourne.

The European leg of the season should help them bring some upgrades to the car that will improve their unpredictability and small setup window, but first they have taken the time to reveal something special in Suzuka.
