Lewis Hamilton predicted what he thinks the gap between Mercedes and Red Bull is and it doesn't make pretty reading for Silver Arrows fans 😬 F1
Lewis Hamilton’s alarming stat that shows just how far Mercedes are behind Red BullLewis Hamilton believes that Red Bull could hold as much as a 1.5-second advantage per lap over Mercedes in race trim, if both teams were pushing.
Having held high hopes for a fightback after the leanest year of his career in 2022, Mercedes appear to have lost ground again to the front of the field in the early stages of this season, with Hamilton putting both Ferrari and Aston Martin ahead of his team on outright pace based on their result in Bahrain.
“It’s not on the straights,” Hamilton said to reporters in Saudi Arabia when asked where Mercedes’ deficits lie to their rivals in 2023. “I think down the straights we’re quick, but exits, these guys [gesturing at Red Bull’s Sergio Perez] have a lot of rear end through the majority of the corners.
