Mercedes’s new DAS steering system could make Lewis Hamilton uncatchable, while Ferrari lag behind their rivals
Mercedes’s iron grip on the front of the grid shows no sign of weakening after six all-conquering years. Their car was impressively quick in both short and long runs, and especially strong through the slower corners of the last sector, a strength of last year. They even managed to throw an engineering curveball at their rivals, albeit one now banned for 2021. With stable regulations they caused a real stir with their innovative dual-axis steering (DAS) system, a manual device controlled by moving the steering wheel to adjust the toe angle of the front wheel to improve tyre wear and reduce drag. If it proves to be advantageous, it could make them uncatchable. The only chink is engine reliability. Lewis Hamilton, aiming for his seventh title, expressed concern, with Mercedes and customers Williams having two engine problems each in six days.
