The Mercedes F1 W04 is the Formula One racing car built by Mercedes for the 2013 Formula One Season. Featuring a completely new design team, including former Ferrari engineer Aldo Costa, the team were hoping to build on a relatively disappointing 2012 where Mercedes finished fifth in the Constructors World Championship. This aim was successful in that the team won 3 races with the F1 W04 and finished second in the Constructors' Championship. The team scored points at every race in 2013.
