“We’re coming back to Lusail for the first time since 2021. The first Grand Prix there was a success for us, so we’re looking forward to coming back. With its sweeping corners, Lusail is a challenging track that the drivers also like,” Wolff added.

“Since our last visit there have been changes both on and off the track. Therefore, a key element of FP1 will be understanding the effect of surface renewal. As this is a sprint race weekend, we will have limited time to work out the issues and find a stable setup for the rest of the weekend. It will be an interesting task that excites us,” concluded the Mercedes boss.
