A disconsolate Lewis Hamilton says he will be “happy” when Mercedes’ inconsistent W14 F1 car is gone at the end of the year.
The seven-time world champion’s comments came after a frustrating Sao Paulo Grand Prix sprint race, in which he dramatically slid to a low-key seventh place finish at the end of 24 laps.
But Hamilton’s exasperation at Mercedes’ 2023 challenger has returned after a so far underwhelming weekend in Brazil, where the team had hoped to potentially challenge for their first win of the season. "And you come to another track and then you have the worst deg that you've had for ages. So it's like you just don't know what to expect with this one.
"It was a very tough race," he added."I think we got a good start and then... balance. We tried to get the right balance with the wing, just a lot of understeer, snap oversteer, and the rear tyres just dropped off. And in the mid-sector, huge understeer.Norris admits he was “caught sleeping” on Lap 1 but Russell ‘paid heavy price'
