Ryan Joseph Ramos May 1, 2012

With the European swing of the 2012 Formula 1 season set to begin in a couple of weeks, F1 teams began preparations with testing on the Mugello track. What greeted them was a morning that was mostly marred by wet conditions, the sort of thing that frustrates drivers and technicians alike. Mercedes AMG Petronas, however, took every positive bit they could out of the wet track. According to driver Nico Rosberg, who gave the Silver Arrow the victory in China, the team managed to get some very useful data out of the testing. He deemed it especially useful in that it should help address a weak point in the team’s… Continue Reading »

While there won’t be a Formula 1 race until May 13, Mercedes AMG Petronas drivers Michael Schumacher and Nico Rosberg will join the brand’s entrants for the 2012 opener of the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters season as they demo a couple of Silver Arrow cars old and new.

Muamer Hodzic April 22, 2012

With last week’s Chinese Grand Prix victory, Mercedes AMG Petronas was finally able to get a win—and it did so with a perfect race from driver Nico Rosberg, proving that the quality Mercedes car parts used in the W03 are reliable and that the car is ready to contend—something it plans to do in Bahrain. While Nico Rosberg was excellent in the practice sessions and managed to take P5 in qualifying, tire overheating might be a problem for the team during the race itself. Tire manufacturer Pirelli, who provides the rubber for Mercedes and the other teams on the grid, have downplayed these concerns. The manufacturer stated that all teams… Continue Reading »

Kharl Prado April 17, 2012

Nico Rosberg finally felt how sweet it is to win a Formula One Grand Prix event at the Chinese Grand Prix last Sunday.

As David Coulthard commented on Mika Hakkinen’s return to racing, “a true racer never loses the speed, only the need to race,” this may be a statement that Mercedes Petronas’ Michael Schumacher can also use. That is, if the rumors are true that he is retiring after the next season.
