'I think the fact that we haven't had a competitive car made it difficult for Lewis, because he is a driver who is just born to win races.'
Mercedes trackside engineering director Andrew Shovlin admitted the team launching their “third bad car in a row” in the W15 had been “difficult” for Lewis Hamilton , given he is “born to win races”.over whether he would be able to get back on the top step again in an emotional win in front of his home crowd.

It’s not like he’s had all bad races, because he’s got George, who’s an incredibly fast driver and a very difficult person to beat and Lewis has had his fair share of races where he’s been ahead of George – it’s just that we weren’t able to win because we didn’t have the car to win.”
