Before the start of the Mexican race weekend, Lewis Hamilton emphasized that he hoped to fight for the win, although he acknowledged that the rivals are still stronger.
Lewis Hamilton: “In Austin Max would have beat me anyway, Red Bull has a very fast car – their advantage in each lap of the race was about 0.4 seconds. Nevertheless, there were many positive things last weekend and we will try to apply all this experience in Mexico.
In addition, the circuit here is high above sea level and this forces everyone to tune the cars for maximum downforce. Even Red Bull will have to do it – let’s see how fast Max will be this weekend. However, a year ago they performed well in Mexico City and I foresee they will be strong now. But I still hope to fight for the win, because last Sunday the rivalry on the track gave me a lot of pleasure.
This season all championship teams are working with maximum effort and I can’t say who deserves the win the most. But I see how focused and hard our team is working, how determined it is. We have to admit that we have done worse than others this year, but if we can win the race it will be incredibly cool.
If not, that’s fine too. Then we use that energy to get better because we now know what’s wrong with our car and we know what needs to be fixed.”
