The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is just around the corner, which means it will be decided who will finish second in the constructors' standings behind Red Bull Racing. An exciting battle, as both Mercedes and Ferrari are still in the race for this coveted spot. Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff, who was often in contention over the weekend in Las Vegas, looks ahead to the final race of the season.
First up, Wolff wants to talk a bit about how great a success the Las Vegas Grand Prix was. "We saw a fantastic race, it was visually spectacular, and overall, a great Grand Prix that I am sure has helped increase the visibility of the sport in the United States," Wolff said.
According to the 51-year-old Mercedes man, the low final results gave a distorted picture of the two drivers' abilities. " The speed of the car was strong," the team boss revealed. " Without all the incidents, Lewis and George could both have battled for the podium," he told with determination.
Can Mercedes beat Ferrari?
"Ferrari have closed the gap in the Constructors' to just four points, and we're ready to give it our all in Abu Dhabi to come out on top. They have shown good form recently, but we know we haven't maximised our performance in the past few races," he added.
