Mercedes Power Unit Crisis Deepens
from F1 News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Mercedes is in deep trouble as their power units keep failing across multiple races, costing them dearly in the championship fight. From George Russell’s sudden shutdown in Canada to Kimi Antonelli’s identical power loss in Barcelona, the pattern is alarming—and it’s not just their own drivers suffering; customer teams like McLaren and Williams are hit too. The culprit appears to be electrical and battery systems under strain from new regulations, with team boss Toto Wolff warning that without reliability, they can’t even finish races let alone win championships. While some failures are traceable, the root cause remains elusive, and with Ferrari surging ahead, Mercedes’ window to fix this is rapidly closing.
