P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Lewis Hamilton has urged Mercedes to “figure out” why the W14 is so inconsistent following a miserable Sao Paulo Grand Prix.
Hamilton had a difficult race, finishing eighth after starting in a promising position. Mercedes’ ongoing tire wear problems meant that Hamilton had to make his first pit stop earlier than the other frontrunners. To make matters worse, he even lost a position to Pierre Gasly from the Alpine team. This was a disappointing result for Mercedes, as their car’s performance was only sixth-fastest at Interlagos. Hamilton acknowledged the car’s inconsistencies, with moments when it works well and moments when it doesn’t, and highlighted their lack of straight-line speed. He also mentioned the challenge of having only one practice session before qualifying, making it harder to address the car’s issues. Despite the difficulties, Hamilton praised his team for their perseverance and emphasized the need to learn from this race and keep pushing forward.
