Pre-season testing Q & A: Current Constructors Champions 'Mercedes'

Welcome to our brand new press conference room and our first of many Q & A sessions throughout our 9th season in F1.

With us today, we have Mr Trotter Waltz from the current Constructors' Champions, Mercedes, and their new driver lineup, Misterflash and Trond.

Q: Mr Waltz, we see that you have a new driver lineup for this season, are you guys looking to these drivers to carry on the hard work from your previous season's drivers?

A: Yes, we had to change our line up this season due to the FIA rules, we would like to thank our previous drivers, Russlad, Boi_Better_Know, Madd44lh for their hard teamwork to get us the title from S8, and we would like to welcome Misterflash and Trond to the workforce here at mercedes and after watching them in S8, we believe they have the teamwork to help us carry on the hard work that has been shown before

Thank you Mr Waltz for that, we now pass our questions on to the new drivers.

Q1: Welcome to our new press conference room. As mercedes are the current Constructors' Champions, we see them with two new drivers for the upcoming season, how have they been bringing you into the team?

After the 2 drivers look at each other to see who us going to answer the question, Trond simply signals Misterflash to answer, everybody soon laughs.

A1: We would like to thank Mercedes for accepting us into their team. We are very happy with the way the team are working with us, and it always takes some time to to get used to a new environment but the team are helping us very well.

Q2: With their being some big changes in the car since last season, how has it been getting used to the car handling during pre-season testing?

A2: For us pre-season testing was very hard, we had to do many laps before we found the absolute limits of the car.

Q3: Has it been decidedby the team who is number one driver or have they said sod it to that system, just go race?

The three of them all look at each other, smile and then Trond answers that question.

A3: For the moment, we are two equal drivers. But as the championship developes and one if us has the chance to win the championship, then we may see a clear number one driver.

Thank you all for joining us in our press room, and we'll let you all go and get prepared for the new season fast approaching and we'll see you all at Australia on the 18th October.
