Mercedes has presented the W13 for the 2022 Formula 1 season. With the new car, the German team also went straight to the track, although the storm Eunice did not exactly help at Silverstone.

Mercedes defies Eunice

With Lewis Hamilton, George Russell and Toto Wolff in attendance, Mercedes' new car for the coming year was unveiled. Of course the team left some things out in order not to make the competition any the wiser, but with a shakedown at Silverstone the car was already tested directly.

In a new video on the Mercedes channel the team looks back on the launch of the car. On Friday a full day was set aside for the launch including interviews with the drivers and team boss. In the afternoon the team drove on the circuit, despite the rain and storm.
