Mercedes 2018 W09 car hits the track

Even though the official launch is still more than an hour away, Mercedes have already sent their new W09 EQ Power+ out on track, in the hands of Valtteri Bottas. The team will do a filming day at Silverstone.
The car is scheduled to be handed over to World Champion Lewis Hamilton in the afternoon.
In between their two stints, the team will reveal their car at 13:15 CET in an online live reveal.
