The Austrian also applauded Hamilton as he “held us up at times”, Mercedes having noted a few times this season that most of the experimental work with their onion of a car was carried out by Hamilton.“I think in a season like this when the car isn’t working we’ve all had our own difficulties,” said the 24-year-old. “I’ve no doubt that he’s going to be probably back to his normal level next year.
