On Monday at Jerez Mercedes AMG unveiled a new machine, W04. In the morning, before the official presentation, first passed Nico Rosberg for the Spanish road, and Lewis Hamilton this opportunity this afternoon. Team spokesman stressed that it is the first British racer, who invited the factory Mercedes team after Stirling Moss, which debuted in the "Silver arrows" in the year 1955.
Lewis Hamilton: "it's a very special day for me, because I imagine machine Mercedes all over the world. There is no other company that would be a long history of participation in the Grand Prix than Mercedes-Benz, and the fact that I became the successor of the business begun by such legendary riders as Juan Manuel Fangio, Stirling Moss and Michael Schumacher is a great honour for me.
This new chapter in my career, a new adventure, and when I first walked into the building the team base in Brackley, I immediately wanted to get down to work. I have a few days spent at the base, getting acquainted with the team at a meeting with my mechanics and engineers: I have not yet had an opportunity to see people more motivated, eager to succeed is stronger than they.
In the winter they live with full force worked hard to make the new car as quickly as possible, and I can't wait to get behind the wheel of W04 to understand to what extent I can help the team make progress. For me it's a fresh start, even though I have been working with Mercedes-Benz, and best of all I learned one thing: Mercedes-Benz does not know that such a defeat. We have to work together for a long time, but I am sure that we will succeed. It's nice that in this job I have a role. "
Nico Rosberg: "in the winter I am very intensively trained: classes took place in the mountains where I climbed higher than 2000 meters, and also on the Mediterranean coast, where I rolled around on a bike, swam and ran around. I was training schedule, in December and January to regularly come to the base team. At that time, we have done a lot, especially when working on the Simulator. According to our calculations, the machine turned out to be effective, but there is still a lot of hard work in testing: we must ensure that these calculations are confirmed on the track. Great atmosphere in the team and all are aimed at success.



I have a new team-mate-Lewis Hamilton. This is his first season in the Mercedes, so I look forward to working together and the ability to customize each other to make the Mercedes Formula 1 team better. "
