🗣'I knew from the moment I drove the car where we were, and the challenges that we would be facing.” Lewis Hamilton is fully aware of the challenges Mercedes have to overcome but is confident the team can improve the W14. F1 BahrainGP ⬇️
His comments echo those the seven-time world champion made after his first run in the troubled W13 last season in what turned out to be his first winless campaign in F1.
However, Hamilton says that the team is in much better shape as the porpoising that afflicted the old car is now absent, making it easier to push on with performance development. "I knew from the moment I drove the car where we were, and the challenges that we would be facing,” said Hamilton."Trying to understand what the problems were whilst having bouncing really masked so many things, it made it difficult to figure out what was up. So we don't have that now.
"And now we can focus on just pure performance. So I've been encouraged to see just the focus and the courage of everyone within the team, they are so focused on getting us back to the top."But this still is a multi-championship winning team and group of people. So I believe in them."
