POLL: Is Mercedes right to revert back to silver?
Mercedes had sported a black livery over the past two years
Eight-time consecutive F1 constructors' champions Mercedes unveiled the W13 E Performance at Silverstone for the upcoming season with a very noticeable change.
Not only has the car shape drastically evolved as the sport enters a new era but the colour has also altered as the team has reverted back to the silver it is famous for.
The W11 and W12 were changed to a predominantly black livery as Lewis Hamilton made his stand against social injustice, throwing his support behind the Black Lives Matter movement in 2020.
But after setting up 'Ignite' and 'Accelerate 25' to spearhead its initiatives towards equality for all, Mercedes last year hinted at a return to silver whilst it continues to take action away from the track.
So what do you think? Should Mercedes have maintained its black livery or are you happy to see it again as a 'Silver Arrow'?
