Lewis Hamilton Upset With Start At Ferrari

Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton said he was unhappy with the team’s decisions and the condition of the car after the first three weeks of the Formula 1 championship.

Hamilton finished the Japanese Grand Prix in seventh place, extending the Italian team’s unenviable start to the season.

The English driver finished tenth at the season opener in Australia but was disqualified in China after an inspection found his car did not meet the required proportions. Ferrari made the same mistake with the car of its other driver, Charles Leclerc, who finished eighth in Melbourne and fourth in Japan.

The seven-time champion did not hide his dissatisfaction after the poor results.

“The first three races have been marked by team mistakes and the poor condition of the car. I’m not at the highest level, but I’m doing the best I can with what I have. I went as fast as I could, but the car just wasn’t fast enough. Hopefully, we’ll be more competitive in the rest of the season,” said Hamilton.

The next race will be held in Bahrain next weekend.
