“He is in bad shape,” said Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff after the race. “We have to find a solution as soon as possible. Perhaps that solution is that we have to prepare one of our reserve drivers,” Wolff continued. ,,It’s not just Lewis’s problem, it’s also a problem for George Russell. And drivers from other teams are also complaining about it. As far as I know, almost all drivers think something should be done.”
“It was the most painful race, the hardest race I’ve been through,” said Hamilton. “There were several moments when I thought I couldn’t finish the race. It was difficult to keep the car on the track at all.”
Despite this, Hamilton expects to be there next week. “Even when it’s painful, we focus. I’ll see you all next week.”
