Nico RosbergNico Rosberg believes it is not too late for Mercedes to turn its season around, despite recording its poorest result since the German car maker returned to Formula 1 as a manufacturer at the recent European Grand Prix.
The German admitted Mercedes encountered 'some issues' with the upgrade package it introduced in Valencia, something which included the team's own version of its exhaust-blown diffuser and updated F-duct.
But Rosberg insisted the team's form in the last race was not representative of its ultimate potential and that Mercedes had improved the upgrades for Silverstone.
The German qualified 12th and finished 10th in Valencia, while his team-mate Michael Schumacher was 15th - his lowest ever classified finish in a grand prix.
