Because the 2017 was the 2nd lci of a 2012 chassis not selling well enough.
They tried to get sales high, but normal people (not race driver nor wannbe) is buying mercedes big badge fwd boxes with all sorts of stupid infotainment and a 1.5 diesel engine from renault, and nobody but the poor drifters want one.
Sad story of the automobile, because this new thing is nowhere, and it crushes the heart of the legendary dynamic brand handling... which by other people might be otherwise hated as a dirty hooligan reputation...well deserved in many cases.
