Lewis Hamilton He is unhappy with the current season he has been in as he is sixth overall for drivers with 198 points. The Briton has come a long way from number one and has never been very good at being far from victory. “What I took away from Austin is we had a good rhythm, I’m still here I know when they build the new car I’ll take it to the top. We just have to keep working. I would like to thank my team. Everyone at the factory is working hard and it has been a very difficult year for everyone.”
In addition, he is also self-critical and analyzes the possible changes he can make: “We came here with improvements, and they worked hard to achieve Those updates And they had a real impact, so we were closer in the States. I am very proud of everyone. I’m sorry I couldn’t win, but I gave it my all. We were ahead and I could see Max closing in a second, but I couldn’t respond.
