The team is clear about still having some work to do on car pace but it has given a proper picture of where they need to put their focus more. Long hours of effort and somehow the Model is still not up to the mark.
However, the F1 driver talks about his team doing a great job with the pit stops. He also says how the car is just not there at the moment as a lot of work is left, but it will soon be. “ We are lacking downforce and we have just got to work really hard to try and add that ASAP,” says Hamilton. Hamilton has faith in the team about closing the gap with the runaway leader, Red Bull.

He also stated about investigating all the changes that were made to their design to provide an immediate improvement in pace. Mercedes could decide to continue working on their current model and Hamilton has urged them to do exactly that instead of changing the model.
