Mercedes have fuelled fans desire for the reveal of their latest challenger for the 2024 season after posting a picture of Lewis Hamilton inside the W15.

Following on from the disappointment of the W13 in 2022 and the W14 last year, the Silver Arrows will be hoping for third time lucky in terms of getting back on track to challenging Red Bull this term.

The team have only won one race since the end of the 2021 season when Max Verstappen snatched the drivers' title away from Lewis Hamilton.

However, while Hamilton was busy sitting inside the cockpit and getting a feel for the latest Mercedes design, the picture wasn't too revealing in its detail.

While Hamilton could be seen sitting inside the new car, the post was heavily edited to pixelate the car around the British star.

The picture was also branded with with two ticker lines reading 'F1W15 14.02.24' referring to the car's launch date in February.

The team also captioned the post 'Nothing to see here' with a winking emoji.

Fans then will have to wait a bit longer to see the 2024 challenger in all its glory, but at the very least they can be pleased to see the seven-time world champion is back at the factory and ready to challenge this season.
