Hamilton: “We could be really strong in Monaco”

Hamilton refreshed by Montreal The Canadian Grand Prix weekend certainly saw one of the best versions of Lewis Hamilton since he raced for Ferrari. Fast and consistent since Friday, the Englishman has always been competitive and it is no coincidence that he achieved his best result since arriving in Maranello, with second position at the finish line.
Hamilton did not hide the engine difficulties of the SF-26 project and therefore hinted that on the next circuit on the calendar – Monte Carlo – Ferrari will be able to have its say. Monaco Hope “Monaco is the only track where power is not fundamental”, began Hamilton in the press conference, continuing: “There it’s all about the performance of the chassis. I think our car could be really strong there and I will focus on making sure I get there with the same energy I had this weekend. I will study a lot with the engineers to put the car in the right position starting from FP1”. Hamilton underlined the frustration with the difficulties of the Ferrari power unit: “If you take away the power deficit we are fighting with those in front. But today that’s not the case: I can keep up with them and keep up with them through corners, but I can’t push the accelerator any further. You see them gain on the straight and you catch them under braking, but then they move away again on the straight. And it’s really difficult, we’re way behind. I hope that the ADUO can allow us to improve our performance a little to allow us to fight. But Monaco should be fun.” Click here to add Formula Passion as your favorite source on Google Discover: you’ll find our content more easily!
