The accident happened on a straight in wet conditions. But let's be dramatic and blame it on the corner preceding it because it gets more clicks.

Rip a great driver
 
Go look for some videos of the time it happened, not even the accident itself. There was near zero visibility

Williams reveals special Silverstone livery

Williams has unveiled an adapted livery for the British Grand Prix, designed with a British twist, while also acknowledging its past, as part of the celebrations to mark its 800th Grand Prix.

The British Grand Prix was set to be the Grove-based team's eighth centennial but, with the cancellation of Imola last month, that landmark shifts to the following race in Budapest.

Williams is therefore celebrating over both weekends, to ensure its home fans in the UK can be part of the commemoration.

The one-off Silverstone design, running on both FW45's of Alex Albon and Logan Sargeant this weekend, pays homage to the team's British heritage and to its beloved founder, the late Sir Frank Williams.

The discussion is about being a brand ambassador for Mercedes, nothing to do with on-track.

Just saying ;)

Look I get it. LH would be the most obvious choice to promote MB going forward. He is their poster boy, 100%.

He is rich beyond imagination, does not need money. He loves fashion and the fashion industry. The two industries does not really fit imo (look at Alpha Tauri).

What is the goal here for LH really? Is he trying to create some sort of Merc fashion line and perhaps Toto doesn't smaak this? Who knows, anyway enough speculation from me about this :ROFL:

It is race week baby!!

If he wears their shirts or not is Irrelevant, MB are not looking for, or in need of, Brand exposure.

They are more concerned with the Brand Association, especially in the American Market, of Lewis Hamilton and Merladies Benz. Hamilton's Private Car is a top of the line AMG, probably an EQ.

Could you imagine the brand damage if he arrived in Las Verges Driving a Ferrari an Aston Martin or, heaven forbid, a Teasla.

That one stunt alone would cost MB a lot more than he is asking to be loyal to the brand for ten years.

Merc might not need exposure, but there are other sponsors involved who have their images all over that car. Look at the other drivers who wear team clothing to the track.

Nice
Aerodynamic upgrades all round
Less buffetting for Sir Lewis I hope
His poor brain has been rattled for the last 2 years in those cars
He needs a smoother ride
New better shocks as well
