Steiner warns Mercedes faces threats despite strong start
Summary
Guenther Steiner believes Mercedes' early-season dominance is not guaranteed for the entire 2026 F1 season. He predicts a fierce development race will allow other teams, particularly McLaren, to close the gap by learning more about their cars and power units as the year progresses.
Former Haas F1 boss Guenther Steiner cautions that Mercedes' dominant start to the 2026 season will be challenged as rival teams rapidly develop their cars and unlock more performance from their current packages.
