Antonelli says Mercedes’ Sepang package is starting to deliver, but low-speed front locking remains a problem

After winning the United States Grand Prix, Kimi Antonelli said Mercedes’ package was “finally starting to deliver”, although not in every area.

Asked whether the upgrades introduced at Sepang were delivering the pace Mercedes expected, he said some areas were working very well while others still fell short of expectations. Antonelli described the car as strong at high and medium speeds, with good balance, but said Mercedes was still struggling with front locking at low speed.
