Just like the past few years Mercedes has started a very dominant season again. According to Ralf Schumacher it's not even everything the team has to offer.
After the first three races of the season we can conclude that Mercedes once again has no equal in Formula 1. All Grands Prix so far have been won by the team and with two races on the Silverstone circuit on the calendar, that soon seems to be five. After all, on the British track the team is very strong.
Moreover, according to Ralf Schumacher Mercedes hasn't even been close to the limit. "We haven't seen what Mercedes can really do yet", the former Formula 1 driver says in an interview with Sky.

More potential in the car

"Last year, from the middle of the season, I am convinced that Mercedes only showed 80 percent of its maximum. We are now at that point again. I think there is much more potential in the car," explains Schumacher.

In addition, according to the German, it's a great team to look at. "It's always so well put together. The communication during the race, the pit stops and the ideas they have". At the current pace, Lewis Hamilton will be able to write his seventh title to his name and thus match the unprecedented record of Michael Schumacher.
