P38 in workshop has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!

The question of why nobody else used their photographs of the 2019 Mercedes to better effect is one that will probably be asked in the boardrooms of several sponsors and parent companies.I really wish the excuses offered would be made public.
