Lewis Hamilton faced an unusual setback at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix earlier this month, finishing 10th on a wet track, trailing behind his teammate George Russell by nearly half a minute. After a disappointing P16 in qualifying, Hamilton's frustration was clear:
- Hamilton's Reaction:
- "That was a disaster of a weekend, guys. That’s the worst the car’s ever been."
- "Great job to all the guys at the pit stop. If this is the last time I get to perform, it’s a shame it wasn’t great."
Speculation swirled about his future, but Hamilton clarified, "In the moment, that’s how I felt," highlighting the emotional toll of a challenging season.
Despite his initial hesitance, Hamilton is back with determination as the Las Vegas Grand Prix approaches. His resolve to finish strong is evident:
- Hamilton's Determination:
- "I’m here, I’m standing strong, and I’m going to give it absolutely everything for these last few races."
- "I’m still here, still fighting, and I’m going to continue to push."
Having already ended a winless streak with victories in July, Hamilton is focused on concluding his Mercedes chapter on a high note.
In Las Vegas, Hamilton's form has bounced back as he topped both practice sessions, just ahead of McLaren’s Lando Norris. This performance sets a promising tone for the race weekend.
