Lewis Hamilton is confident that Mercedes are capable of closing the gap with Red Bull in the 2024 Formula 1 season.
The Brit is full of hope after seeing next year's car in Mercedes' wind tunnel for the first time.
Red Bull won 22 out of last season's 23 races, as Max Verstappen was crowned champion with a total of 19 wins to his name.
Led by Hamilton, Mercedes will be doing their best to compete in the upcoming seasons.
"It's always the exciting time of the year because I have seen the car in the wind tunnel," the 38-year-old said at FIA's awards gala.
"I have full faith in everyone that's working on it and hopeful that we'll be in a much more competitive position next year."
"The team really raised the bar and we have a lot of work to close that gap. But I truly do believe that we can close that gap.
"I hope we come back next year and give it everything."
