Press Releases - Mercedes Thanks Ernie Beales

Mercedes Thanks Ernie Beales

Season 52 will be Ernie´s last season in F1 & in Mercedes team as the 39 year old will focus on Moto racing after this season.

Ernie has been a big part of our Mercedes Family and without him the operation behind the scenes would have been harder (Setting up engineers,strategy department knowledge etc)

Ernie has performed wonderfully with his driver in the past 2 seasons in F1 with best race finish being 15th in Season 51 Austin . It´s been great to watch Ernie still perform on good level despite his driver´s age being 39 and skill loss everyday is massive.

Ernie is one of those managers in the game who has lot of knowledge & is one of the best managers in the game

Season 42 he won V8 World Championship & in Season 46 he won Nascar Gold Series World Championship.

We wish Ernie all the best and we will be reserving a seat for his new driver Gary, or should i say Gary Driver like he is called... (Terrible banter i know)

But Thank you Ernie for everything, andd it´s been pleasure to be working with you
