An F1 pundit believes Lewis Hamilton has had to change his driving style as a result of the W14 upgrades.
‘Mercedes W14 upgrade has forced Lewis Hamilton to change his driving style’Formula 1 commentator Peter Windsor believes Lewis Hamilton has had to alter his driving style in recent weeks to make the most of the upgraded Mercedes W14.
Although Russell was eliminated in Q2 in challenging conditions at the following round in Spain, the Mercedes drivers emerged as Red Bull’s closest challengers in Barcelona as the team recorded their first two-car podium finish of the year. “And I think that’s why he’s doing quite well with this car and that’s why you’re not seeing Lewis with his classic short corners.Nico Rosberg: Max Verstappen retirement talk started because of Lewis Hamilton
“It’s a bit like the situation with Oscar [Piastri] and Lando [Norris, at McLaren]. Oscar’s thinking: ‘I need to do what Max is doing and start shortening my corners. Why am I spending all this time out here when I could be making a shorter racetrack?’ Windsor pointed to the opening series of corners in Montreal as a chance to get a better gauge of the changes Hamilton has implemented at this weekend’s Canadian GP, with the change-of-direction sequence between Turns 1 and 2 revealing the difference between the good and the great in F1.
