Chance to ‘Gain Momentum’ Before Summer:

Toto Previews Belgium

After two difficult races in Austria and at Silverstone, Toto and the team are looking forward to getting back on track.

“The next two Grands Prix provide an opportunity to head into the summer break with momentum,” he says.

“In the first 12 races of the season, we have been at front of the field on several occasions. At others, we have struggled.

“We have focused our energies on improving this delta, working hard to ensure we can be competitive at all events.

With the introduction of the 2026 regulations drawing closer with each passing weekend, the time will soon come for a shift in focus.

“Post-shutdown, our attention will inevitably turn further towards 2026 though.

“These next two races are therefore important in ensuring we get the W16 into as good a place as possible across varying tracks and conditions.”

The next two weeks will provide two very different tests for W16, as we look to further our understanding of our 2025 challenger.

“Spa and the Hungaroring are useful venues for helping us continue that work,” says Toto.

“They are different in character; Spa with its elevation changes, high-speed corners, and changeable weather contrasts with the tight, twisty circuit layout of Budapest that often sees some of the highest track temperatures of the year.

“We will aim to make good steps with the car whilst optimising each weekend and fighting for strong results.”
