Experts and some of us noticed (too much) white smoke is coming out from the Mercs exhausts ..
you re amazing mate..

i remember not superly clear but in 2020 teams are allowed to burn 0.3L of oil in 100km.. in 2019 it was allowed more.. Merc' engines generally do that after straights right after the first tap on throttle more on free practices, obviously it can be good for cooling and 1-2 drops is enough to make that puff of smoke.. as long as oil is not used to be burnt with fuel it should be in regulations..
