Mercedes haven't quite been at their best in the past few races with Charles Leclerc winning at Spa and Monza. Despite this, they are still well clear of Ferrari in the standings.
Toto Wolff always knew that the races following the summer break would be difficult for the team to perform in given the type of tracks which Spa and Monza are.
"We came back from the summer break knowing that the first two races would be difficult for us.
"We ended up with two double podiums and 67 points which was a strong form of damage limitation and more than we expected.
The Singapore Grand Prix comes this weekend and it's one of the most exciting grids on the circuit, with it also being a night race.
"The next race takes us to Singapore, a spectacular night race and a great showcase for our sport.
"The offset schedule and the climate make it a demanding weekend for the team; temperatures in the garage can easily reach 40 degrees Celsius or more with high humidity levels as well."
