Watch:Sad Lewis Hamilton expresses disappointment with Mercedes’ set-up after Friday practice…
Silverstone, UK – In a candid post-practice interview, seven-time Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton expressed his disappointment with the Mercedes set-up after Friday’s practice sessions.
Hamilton, who has been striving to close the performance gap with rival teams, was visibly frustrated with the car’s performance on the track. “We’ve got a lot of work to do,” Hamilton said. “The set-up just isn’t where it needs to be, and we’re struggling to find the right balance.”
The Silver Arrows have faced a challenging season, with frequent adjustments and updates in a bid to reclaim their dominance in the sport. However, the feedback from Hamilton suggests that the team still has significant hurdles to overcome.
“The car is not responding the way we anticipated,” Hamilton added. “It’s disappointing, but we’ll keep pushing and hopefully find some improvements before qualifying.”
Hamilton’s teammate, George Russell, also noted similar issues but remained optimistic about potential adjustments before the crucial sessions. “We’re working hard to understand the data and make the necessary changes,” Russell commented. “It’s been a tough day, but we’re not giving up.”
As the Mercedes team heads back to the garage to analyze the practice data, the pressure mounts to find solutions that will put them in a competitive position for the rest of the weekend. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see if the iconic team can turn their fortunes around and deliver a strong performance in the upcoming races.
