The Austrian was left to rue a tough weekend for his team at the Red Bull Ring last time out as a penalised Lewis Hamilton dropped behind George Russell for a 7-8 result.
Mercedes reckons that poor showing was an outlier and the eight-time constructors’ champion has everything necessary at its disposal to bounce back.
Notably, the W14 will wear a new front wing for Silverstone to improve airflow to the floor, but Wolff has still checked expectations for this weekend saying it will not be “full of roses”.
He said: “I’m of the firm belief that we have everything that’s needed to bounce back.
“We had a bad weekend [in Austria] and these cars for, not only us but for everyone, are unpredictable.
"We’ve seen other teams, be it Ferrari or Aston Martin, having these outliers. Even within Red Bull, [Sergio Perez] has been in and out.
“We very much hope that this was a track that was an outlier for us, but it’s not like we are going here with super high expectations and it’s all full of roses. It’s not. We still need to improve the car.”
The Mercedes F1 boss added that the ground-effect cars introduced in 2022 require different methods to be developed, hence why Red Bull has stolen a march as it is the “only” team to ‘get it right’.
Therefore, Wolff said the remaining teams must aim to stop the run of defending champion Red Bull.
