Alejandro 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2006 When Mercedes used beryllium in their construction it seemed to be stronger engine and more reliable. But then FIA banned it because is a very toxic material, so it looks like very hard for Mercedes to find the right materials for the engine construction. This is not a new problem for Mercedes. In matter of facts, it has been always Mercedes problem in F1. With Hakkinen, Coulthard, Raikkonen, Montoya and every Mclaren driver Mercedes failed. I think they spent a lot of money making new engines, but it seems they dont find the way. Or maybe they take to much risks trying to make a lighter and reliable engine? But that argument is very old and the same failure is very old too. What do you think about that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
