Hamilton: Ferrari in crisis on the straights
The Mercedes driver analyzes the drop in performance of the red in Austria and points the finger at the top speed.
Lewis Hamilton identified Ferrari's Achilles heel in the Austrian Grand Prix: speed on the straights. Speaking to the microphones at Silverstone, the seven-time world champion drew a precise technical picture to explain the red's decline in competitiveness, suggesting that the deficit is not transitory but linked to the configuration of the car. Hamilton noted how the Maranello car lost ground precisely where it should make a difference, suggesting that the development package brought to the race did not work as expected in the low-load areas.
