168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton says his Mercedes F1 car wa🎃s performing like “a plank of wood” during a mi⛄serable run to 10th at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix.

The seven-time world champion endured a weekꦓend to forget at Interlagos. He was knocked out in SQ2 and could only finish 11th in the sprint, before suffering a Q1 elimination in regular qualifying on Sunday morning.

Hamilton struggled throughout Sunday’s grand prix and had several offs, but was a🌜t least able to score a single point for his efforts to cap off a torrid wꦍeekend in Brazil.

With teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell securing a front-row start and 💞finishing fourth in the grand prix, Hamilton was at a loss to why his car was, as he put it over team radio, “undrivable”.

“We were just sl🌠ow. The car was really, really tough,” Hamilton told Sky Sports🅺 F1.

“But I do really want to say a big t📖hank you to the guys in the garage. They turned up super early this morning and still did a great job throughout the weekend.

“I know everyone back in the factory will be feeling the pain. T🍌he team could have won, also, today. At least one car was behaving.”

When asked what he was having to contend with in his W15, Hamilton replied:  “It’s like ꦰa plank of wood. There’s no suspension. It’s just bouncing on the tyres, everywhere. Can’t get on the power anywhere.

“The worst ride defini♒tely that we’ve ever had, particularly through corners. Just so stiff. Hopefully we won’t have any more 𝄹bumpy tracks.

“I 🔯think the last three aren’t so bouncy, but yeah, I could happily go t﷽ake a holiday.”

Ham𒊎ilton has fallen two points behind Russell in the drivers’ standings and slipped to s꧑eventh place with three grands prix and one sprint race remaining.
