Lewis Hamilton 'doesn't feel connected' to Mercedes F1 car after poor Saudi Arabian GP qualifying
The seven-time world champion could only set the eighth-fastest time in qualifying as he remained well off the pace of Mercedes teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell, who was an encouraging fourth.
Hamilton was slower than Russell in two of the three practice sessions in Jeddah and ended up almost ha🌟lf a second 🍬adrift of the younger Briton by the end of Q3.
“I struggl🐷ed with the ca🐠r in the high-speed particularly,” Hamilton told Sky.
“But just don’t feel the car beneath me💙. I don’t feel connected to this car and I can’t get it, so I don’t 🐻really know what I’m doing to do about that.”
Hamilton, who will start seventh due to a grid penalty for Ferrari’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Charles Leclerc, added: “It’s miserable. It’s tough.
“I’m giving it absolutely everything - I’m here as late as I can be everyday. I’m preparing the best you can and I just get in the car and I 🐽can’t connect with it.
“I don’t really know what to say about it.”
Russell, meanwhile, will line up from third on the grid behind Red Bull’s 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Alonso’s Aston Martin.
The Mercedes duo were separated by168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Carlos Sainz’s Ferrari, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lance Stroll’s Aston Martin and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Esteban Ocon’s Alpine in qualifying.
“It’s good that George had a good run today and he will h🥂opefully be able to score some good points for the team,” Hamilton said.
“𓆏I’ll try and rec🍌over tomorrow. It’s a new day, so I’ll give it everything.”
