Mercedes is the fifth team to launch its 2021 machinery
Mercedes has become the fifth team to launch its 2021 Formula 1 machinery after the covers were lifted off the W12.
Mercedes is one of just three teams on the grid to field an unchanged driver line-up for the coming season after both Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas signed new one year deals with the team.
Last year Mercedes broke from tradition by running a black livery instead of its regular silver in a visual stand against racism.
Hamilton and Mercedes have since committed to launching a joint charitable foundation to support diversity in motorsport as a part of his new deal.
For the coming season, Mercedes has retained its largely black look, but with the iconic silver on display at the rear of the car.
GPFans has compiled a gallery of images of the W12.
